Bible Question: how many nazarites ar in the bible |
Bible Answer: Hello Insearchof, Scripture doesn't provide an exact number. According to Easton's Bible Dictionary, "Although there is no mention of any Nazarite before Samson, yet it is evident that they existed before the time of Moses." We know Paul took up the Nazarite vow while in Corinth (Acts 18:18). "On another occasion (Acts 21:23–26), at the feast of Pentecost, Paul took on himself again the Nazarite vow." [Easton's] Scripture mentions 3 lifelong Nazarites, Samson, Samuel, and John the Baptist (Judg. 13:4, 5; 1 Sam. 1:11; Luke 1:15) I hope this helps, BradK |
