Judges 13:18

And the angel of the Lord (Yahweh) said to him, "Why do you ask my name? It is indescribable (wonderful – Hebr. pili)."
[The word "indescribable" is only used here and in Ps. 139:6, where it describes something that is beyond human understanding. The word comes from the verb to perform miracles. It is used in connection with the birth of Isaac (Gen. 18:14), the deliverance from Egypt (Gen. 3:20), the crossing of the Jordan (Josh. 3:5), etc. It describes something that is far too wonderful and impossible for us to understand, something that belongs to the heavenly realm and can only be understood in the heavenly dimension.]
