About

Judge of Israel set apart as a Nazirite from birth, giving him supernatural strength. He killed a lion with his bare hands, slew a thousand Philistines with a donkey's jawbone, and carried off the gates of Gaza. His weakness was revealed to Delilah who betrayed him. Captured and blinded, he pulled down the pillars of the Philistine temple, killing himself and more enemies in death than in life.
