Description
Samson, Hebrew Shimshon, legendary Israelite warrior and judge, or divinely inspired leader, renowned for the prodigious strength that he derived from his uncut hair. He is portrayed in the biblical Book of Judges (chapters 13–16). Delilah deceived him and cut off his hair, causing him to lose his strength. After the Philistines blinded him he used his last strength to push the pillars that crushed them.
