SCRIPTURE

"And Jehovah said unto him, Peace be unto thee; fear not: thou shalt not die." — Judges 6:23 (ASV)

The Lord said unto him. —How this intimation was given we are not told. The Septuagint does not here change “the Lord” into “the angel of the Lord.”

Peace be unto thee; fear not. —Compare Daniel 10:7-9; Daniel 10:19; Ezekiel 1:2–28:1; Mark 16:8; Luke 1:13; Luke 2:10; Revelation 1:17, etc.
