There was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and didn't bear.
"The child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb"  (Judges 13:5). The Mosaic Law concerning Nazarites is found in  Numbers 6, but the rules given there apply to persons taking the Nazarite vow for a limited number of days or weeks.  These were called `Nazarites of days.' A Nazarite for life was called a perpetual Nazarite, of which class Samuel, Samson and John the Baptist are mentioned in the Bible.  It is of interest that Paul became a Nazarite of days (Acts 21:26).
