WOMEN IN THE BIBLE DELILAH BETRAYS SAMSON FOR MONEY
|
JUDGES 16 Samson fell in love with a woman whose name was Delilah.
1 ALEXANDRE CABANEL "Samson et Dalila"
2 JOSÉ ECHENAGUSIA ERRAZQUIN "Samson and Delilah"
3 JAMES TISSOT "Samson and Delilah"
The rulers of the Philistines went to her and said, “See if you can lure him into showing you the secret of his great strength and how we can overpower him so we may tie him up and subdue him. Each one of us will give you eleven hundred shekels of silver.”

So Delilah said to Samson, “Tell me the secret of your great strength and how you can be tied up and subdued.” Samson answered her,
“If anyone ties me with seven fresh thongs that have not been dried, I’ll become as weak as any other man.” . . . . “If anyone ties me securely with new ropes that have never been used, I’ll become as weak as any other man.”
. . . . “If you weave the seven braids of my head into the fabric on the loom and tighten it with the pin, I’ll become as weak as any other man.”
Again she called to him, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” He awoke from his sleep and pulled up the pin and the loom, with the fabric. Then she said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when you won’t confide in me? This is the third time you have made a fool of me and haven’t told me the secret of your great strength.” With such nagging she prodded him day after day until he was tired to death.

So he told her everything. “No razor has ever been used on my head,” he said, “because I have been a Nazirite set apart to God since birth. If my head were shaved, my strength would leave me, and I would become as weak as any other man.” 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, gouged out his eyes and took him down to Gaza.

Binding him with bronze shackles, they set him to grinding in the prison. But the hair on his head began to grow again after it had been shaved.

The story says she shaved off his locks on the sides, which was what the Nazarite would have worn in those days, similar to what Hasidic Jews wear today. After the shave and a haircut, it would resemble a ‘Mullet’...................

How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when you won’t confide in me? ROFL!!!
"Why should I put up with you at all when you literally betrayed me to my mortal enemies THREE TIMES?!?!?!?!?!"

Good Morning Dan, and good day to all.
Wow, what a collection. And a story appropriate for us to consider our own ‘closely held accoutrements of weakness’
#17 Stom; with avaricious crone,
and #44 Bloch; such glee from the wicked. Both classics.
Thank You Dan!!
