EXPLANATION

Verse 19. On. Manue was convinced that the person who had authorized him to offer sacrifice, had power to dispense with him. Worthington.—The angel “did wonderful things,” as the Hebrew may be explained, causing a flame to proceed from the rock and to consume the victim, as Josephus assures us, ( Calmet.) and as the angel who had appeared to Gedeon had done. Calmet. 6:21. Menochius.
