RULES FOR NAZARITES-2
Judges 16:17 “That he told her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a razor upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother’s womb: if I be shaven then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak and be like any other man.”

I also want you to know that we are New Testament Nazarites and these same conditions apply to us as well. So it becomes sacrosanct for us to understand them as well.

Here are the restrictions placed on a Nazarite:

Judges 13:4 “Now therefor’e beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing:
