And Samson said to them, "This time I will be blameless regarding the Philistines if I harm them!" Judges 15:3
And Samson said to them, "This time I will be blameless regarding the Philistines if I harm them!" Judges 15:3
Enraged because his father-in-law gave his wife to his best man, Samson caught three hundred foxes tied their tails together set them on fire and burned down their fields and vineyards!
When the Philistines found out it was Samson who had done this, they burned his wife and her father alive with fire! It is striking that the Philistines are ancestors of the Palestinians and as we have seen, Hamas is just as cruel and brutal, decapitating children, burning people alive and killing hundreds of innocent people!
Samson then told the Philistines, "Since you would do such a thing, I will surely take revenge on you!" Samson attacked them with a great slaughter and the men of Judah arrested him. (His own people, sound familiar?) He then broke free from his bonds and killed a thousand men with the jawbone of a donkey!
Then Samson said, "With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps upon heaps. With the jawbone of a donkey, I have slain a thousand men!" Judges 15:16
