Scripture ... Num 6:1-21, Jdg 13:5-7, 1Sa 1:11, Amo 2:11-12, Act 18:18 ... The mother's of Samson (Jdg 13:5-7) and Samuel (1Sa 1:11) took the vows before they were concieved. Paul's cutting of his hair (Acts 18:18) doesn't conform to Numbers 6. Searcher |

Searcher I am confused, I thought only men could take a vow of being a Nazarite? In the case of Samson's mother an angel told her to do certain things saying Samson would have to be a Nazarite, not her. But she did the deeds of a Nazarite so is that why you mention her? In the case of Hannah she made her vow to the Lord at the doorpost to make sure of if God gave her a son, her son would be a Nazarite. So is that really Hannah taking a Nazarite vow, or is it Hannah taking a vow that her son will be one if she can get one? I agree with you about the hair. According to the instructions in Numbers 6 one cannot have a rozor pass the head to cut the hair. In Acts 18:8, and in Acts 21:24 Paul is about to get his head shaved, or get the head of his followers shaved to fulfill a vow, but it can't be Nazarite because the heads get shaved. peacebestill |

Greetings peacebestill! According to the law of the Nazirite, when the days of separation are fulfilled (Numbers 6:13) the Nazirite shall then among other things (Numbers 6:13-17) shave his head of hair (Numbers 6:18). So Paul getting his head shaved does not exclude the vow from being the Nazirite vow. If indeed the vow was a Nazirite vow, it would be part of the requirements of the Nazirite law to do so. Steve |
