 Manoah - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
Manoah was the father of Samson, and his life-story is but imperfectly told in the history of the conception, birth and early life of his son.
That Manoah was a devout man seems certain in view of the fact that, upon hearing of the angel's visit, he offered a prayer for the angel's return, in order that he and his wife might be instructed as to the proper care of the child to be born (Judges 13:8).
Manoah and his wife appear twice in the narrative of Samson's early life--once as they protestingly accompanied him to sue for the hand of a Philistine woman of Timnah in marriage, and again when they went with him to Timnab for the wedding.
