Verses of Luke 1
Luke 1:12 Commentary - Whedon's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments
12. Fear fell Wonderful is the fear which curdles the blood of even the bravest of mortals at the thought of meeting a messenger from God, or an apparition from the world of spirits. It seems to indicate that such beings do exist, and that such is their relation to us that their approach, by way of manifestation, must shock the very foundations of our being. So when the angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon and to Manoah, both gave themselves up for dead. Jdg 6:12; Jdg 6:22; Jdg 13:3; Jdg 13:22.
