12 Then the Angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him: The Lord is with thee, thou valiant man.
12 Then the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto him, and sayd vnto him: The Lord is with thee, thou valiant man.
1Here is expressed a most ancient manner of salutation, wherein they said: The Lord is with thee. We read in the book of Ruth, that Boaz used it, when he came unto his harvest men. The Angel also in this manner saluted the blessed Virgin. Yea, and the Church of Christ by the Minister saluteth the people in the holy services, and saith: The Lord be with you. The angel called Gideon a strong man, not by that strength (as it is thought) wherewith he was before endued, but by the strength which should afterward be given him, for the accomplishing of things. Although it might easily be, that Gideon was a man skilful in feats of war. But the first interpretation agreeth better. Howbeit Augustine in his questions upon this place,2 thus readeth this particle, as though God him self should be called a strong and warlike man, as if he should have said: That God which is mighty & warlike, is with thee, or be with thee. Neither ought it much to move us, because this word Man is added, forasmuch as it is after the same manner written in the song of Exodus. For God may so be called by a Metaphor. But the first exposition is more received, and seemeth more simple.
