Judges 16 (성경통독): In this chapter, we can see how Samson’s life as a judge of Israel comes to an end after 20 years. Delilah‘s love for the bribe money was greater than her love for Samson apparently. When she got him to sleep, his head on her lap, she motioned to a man to cut off the seven braids of his hair. Immediately he began to grow weak. His strength drained from him.By now, God had abandoned him....The Philistines grabbed him, gouged out his eyes, and took him down to Gaza and got together to offer a great sacrifice to their god Dagon. Later, They had him standing between the pillars in front of 3000 men in the stands watching his performance.After crying out to God, Samson reached out to the two central pillars that held up the building and pushed against them, one with his right arm, the other with his left. Saying, “Let me die with the Philistines,” Samson pushed hard with all his might. The building crashed on the tyrants and all the people in it. He killed more people in his death than he had killed in his life.
