Author Topic: Nazirite Vow Daddy Raptor Advanced Member Member # 6975 posted                       Well, I guess it would prevent him from the meal at that. But then, I get the impression that he was not the sociable type anyhow. Not to mention that he was on some kind of health food kick eating bugs with a honey coating! Oy Vay!

A Nazirite could not drink wine or touch anything from the vine.

Although not shown as a reference in my concordance, I would think Luke 1:44 is at least equal evidence he was consecrated.

One of the ones who was a Nazirite for his whole life?

However, He was a Nazarene (from Nazareth), not a Nazirite. A Nazirite could not come into contact with a dead body. Jesus came into contact with and touched dead bodies and, they were all raised from the dead! At the end of the time of the vow a Nazirite would shave his head. If Jesus was a Nazirite he would come more near being bald than having long hair! Posts: 21 | From: Jonesborough, TN | Registered: Jan 2008  |  IP: Logged |
