Samson = "like the sun"
a Danite, son of Manoah, a Nazarite for life, and a judge of Israel for 20 years
Strong's Number H8123 matches the Hebrew שִׁמְשׁוֹן (šimšôn),
which occurs 38 times in 37 verses
in the WLC Hebrew.
So the woman [in due time] gave birth to a son and named him Samson; and the boy grew and the LORD blessed him.
Samson went down to Timnah and at Timnah he saw a woman, one of the daughters of the Philistines.
Then Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother [to arrange the marriage], and they came as far as the vineyards of Timnah; and [fn]suddenly, a young lion came roaring toward him.
His father went down to the woman, and Samson prepared a feast there, for that was the customary thing for young men to do.
Then on the fourth day they said to Samson’s wife, “Persuade your husband to tell us [through you] the [answer to the] riddle, or we will burn you and your father’s household with fire. Have you invited us to make us poor? Is this not true?”
But after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, Samson went to visit his wife with a young goat [as a gift of reconciliation]; and he said, “I will go in to my wife in her room.” But her father would not allow him to go in.
“With the jawbone of a donkey,
Heaps upon heaps,
With the jawbone of a donkey
I have struck down a thousand men.”
Then Delilah said to Samson, “See now, you have mocked me and told me lies; now please tell me [truthfully] how you may be bound.”
Then Delilah said to Samson, “Until now you have mocked me and told me lies; tell me [truthfully] with what you may be bound.” And he said to her, “If you weave the seven braids of my hair with the web [fn][and fasten it with a pin, then I will become weak and be like any other man.”
Now the Philistine lords gathered together to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to celebrate, for they said,
“Our god has given Samson our enemy into our hands!”
Now when they were in high spirits, they said, “Call for Samson, so that he may amuse us.” So they called Samson out of the prison, and he entertained them. They made him stand between the pillars.
Then Samson called to the LORD and said, “O Lord GOD, please remember me and please strengthen me just this one time, O God, and let me take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes.”
