'''Samson''' ([[Hebrew]]: '''שִׁמְשׁוֹן''' ''Shimshon'' "of the sun") was a [[Judge]] renowned for his great strength. This came from his being a [[Nazirite]] since birth. One of the principal vows of the Nazirites was to never cut their hair; when he eventually revealed this to [[Delilah]] she betrayed him and proceeded to have his hair cut off by [[Philistines]], who also gouged out his eyes. Used as a slave grinding grain in the mill of a prison, Samson prayed for his strength one last time, and collapsed the pillars of a building, killing himself and hundreds of Philistines.
