Compare all
16 And the Angel of the Lord said to Manoah, “Though you detain Me, I will not eat your food. But if you offer a burnt offering, you must offer it to the Lord.” (For Manoah did not know He was the Angel of the Lord.)
17 Then Manoah said to the Angel of the Lord, “What is Your name, that when Your words come to pass we may honor You?”
18 And the Angel of the Lord said to him, a“Why do you ask My name, seeing it is wonderful?”  
19 So Manoah took the young goat with the grain offering, aand offered it upon the rock to the Lord. And He did a wondrous thing while Manoah and his wife looked on—  
20 it happened as the flame went up toward heaven from the altar—the Angel of the Lord ascended in the flame of the altar! When Manoah and his wife saw this, they afell on their faces to the ground.  
21 When the Angel of the Lord appeared no more to Manoah and his wife, athen Manoah knew that He was the Angel of the Lord.  
22 And Manoah said to his wife, a“We shall surely die, because we have seen God!”

Judges 13:18

Seeing it is secret ? - It was because it was secret that they wished to know it. The angel does not say that it was secret, but hu peli it is Wonderful; the very character that is given to Jesus Christ, Isaiah 9:6 : His name shall be called, Wonderful; and it is supposed by some that the angel gives this as his name, and consequently that he was our blessed Lord.
