The Bible In Paintings 2 ENCOURAGEMENT FOR APPRECIATING AND APPLYING GOD'S MESSAGE |
J U D G E S CHAPTER 16 When Delilah saw that he had told her everything, she sent word to the rulers of the Philistines, “Come back once more; he has told me everything.” So the rulers of the Philistines returned with the silver in their hands. Having put him to sleep on her lap, she called a man to shave off the seven braids of his hair, and so began to subdue him. And his strength left him. Then she called, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” He awoke from his sleep and thought, “I’ll go out as before and shake myself free.” BUT HE DID NOT KNOW THAT THE LORD HAD LEFT HIM. Then the Philistines seized him….

Looks like Caravaggio, #19, has Delilah use a razor to shave Samson’s head..In all the paintings, the artists envision brute force to subdue Samson, adding dramatic effects to the scene. Good choices, Dan!

A fun thread, seeing how artists decided to portray it, although of course Samson had no fun.

What splendid artwork! And if you can, watch the Hedy Lamarr/Victor Mature film Samson and Delilah (1949), it’s on You Tube.
