Usage: Manoach is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, specifically as the name of a person. Context: Manoach is a biblical figure mentioned in the Book of Judges. He is best known as the father of Samson, one of the judges of Israel. Manoach was from the tribe of Dan and lived in the town of Zorah. His story is primarily found in Judges 13. Manoach's wife, who is not named in the text, was initially barren. An angel of the LORD appeared to her, announcing that she would bear a son who would begin to deliver Israel from the Philistines. This son was to be a Nazirite from birth, dedicated to God. Manoach, upon hearing his wife's account of the angelic visitation, prayed for the angel to return to instruct them on how to raise the child. God granted his request, and the angel reappeared, reiterating the instructions. Manoach's interaction with the angel demonstrates his faith and desire to follow God's will. He prepared a burnt offering, and as the flame blazed up from the altar, the angel ascended in the flame, confirming the divine nature of the message. Manoach and his wife named their son Samson, who grew and was blessed by the LORD. Manoach's story highlights themes of faith, divine intervention, and the fulfillment of God's promises.
