Samson

“Then Samson’s brothers and his father’s family came down, carried him back, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of his father Manoah. And he had judged Israel twenty years.”

“Now there was a man from Zorah named Manoah, from the clan of the Danites, whose wife was barren and had no children.”

“So the woman gave birth to a son and named him Samson. The boy grew, and the LORD blessed him.”

“And the Spirit of the LORD began to stir him at Mahaneh-dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.”

“One day Samson went down to Timnah, where he saw a young Philistine woman.”

“When Samson returned later to take her, he left the road to see the lion’s carcass, and in it was a swarm of bees, along with their honey.”

“Then the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, killed thirty of their men, took their apparel, and gave their clothes to those who had solved the riddle. And burning with anger, Samson returned to his father’s house,”

“and his wife was given to one of the men who had accompanied him.”
