And the angel of the Lord said unto him
Being so importunate, and pressing upon him;
why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret?
and not to be known; as his nature and essence as a divine Person, which may be meant by his name, is what passes knowledge, is infinite and incomprehensible; see ( Proverbs 30:4 ) or "wonderful" F16; which is one of the names of Christ, and fitly agrees with him, who is wonderful in his person, as God and man; in his incarnation, in his offices and relations, in his love to his people, and in all he is unto them, and has done for them; (See Gill on Isaiah 9:6).
