Judges Capitolo 16 1 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
Judges Capitolo 16 3 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
3. Samson . . . arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city--A ruinous pile of masonry is still pointed out as the site of the gate. It was probably a part of the town wall, and as this ruin is "toward Hebron," there is no improbability in the tradition.
carried them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron--That hill is El-Montar; but by Hebron in this passage is meant "the mountains of Hebron"; for otherwise Samson, had he run night and day from the time of his flight from Gaza, could only have come on the evening of the following day within sight of the city of Hebron. The city of Gaza was, in those days, probably not less than three-quarters of an hour distant from El-Montar. To have climbed to the top of this hill with the ponderous doors and their bolts on his shoulders, through a road of thick sand, was a feat which none but a Samson could have accomplished [VAN DE VELDE].
Judges Capitolo 16 4 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
Jud 16:4-14.
DELILAH CORRUPTED BY THE PHILISTINES.
4. he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek--The location of this place is not known, nor can the character of Delilah be clearly ascertained. Her abode, her mercenary character, and her heartless blandishments afford too much reason to believe she was a profligate woman.
Judges Capitolo 16 5 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
5. the lords of the Philistines--The five rulers deemed no means beneath their dignity to overcome this national enemy.
Entice him, and see wherein his great strength lieth--They probably imagined that he carried some amulet about his person, or was in the possession of some important secret by which he had acquired such herculean strength; and they bribed Delilah, doubtless by a large reward, to discover it for them. She undertook the service and made several attempts, plying all her arts of persuasion or blandishment in his soft and communicative moods, to extract his secret.
Judges Capitolo 16 7 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
7. Samson said . . ., If they bind me with seven green withs--Vine tendrils, pliant twigs, or twists made of crude vegetable stalks are used in many Eastern countries for ropes at the present day.
Judges Capitolo 16 8 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
8. she bound him with them--probably in a sportive manner, to try whether he was jesting or in earnest.
Judges Capitolo 16 9 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
9. there were men lying in wait, abiding . . . in the chamber--The Hebrew, literally rendered, is, "in the inner," or "most secret part of the house."
Judges Capitolo 16 10 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
10. And Delilah said--To avoid exciting suspicion, she must have allowed some time to elapse before making this renewed attempt.
Jud 16:1-3.
SAMSON CARRIES AWAY THE GATES OF GAZA.
1, 2. Gaza--now Guzzah, the capital of the largest of the five Philistine principal cities, about fifteen miles southwest of Ashkelon. The object of this visit to this city is not recorded, and unless he had gone in disguise, it was a perilous exposure of his life in one of the enemy's strongholds. It soon became known that he was there; and it was immediately resolved to secure him. But deeming themselves certain of their prey, the Gazites deferred the execution of their measure till the morning.
