Buffy327: True, but Sampson got em all back in the end...To include Delilah... and God welcomed him into heaven.....See I studied my lessons...
Pedro the moral of the story is if u follow the Word of God he will not leave U, U can leave him, (Freewill) but he will not leave U....God told Sampson's mother when he was born to never cut his hair....Never tell anyone and he would make him the strongest man on earth to help carry out God's will..
Until Delilah, he never told anyone, nor did he cut his hair. Delilah was Palestinian and Sampson was a Israelite and back then they did not believe in mixing the races. Sampson of course saw the lovely Delilah and against his parents wishes (did not obey his parents) married her anyway....Of course she was in it for the money and took the 55 pieces of silver for giving up his blessing information. Well the Palestinians cut his hair and poked his eyes out....Sampson asked for God's forgiveness and God gave him his strength back and Sampson brought the pillars down on the Palestinians to include Delilah and himself....
My memory of the story anyway...Let's say a condense version. Hope this helps
Well it was a little more than that....She was sort of like an Operative Spy, working for her country....and made a little extra money on the side....LOL
