Introduction to Judges Chapter 16
In this chapter we have an account of Samson's too great familiarity with two harlots; by the one he was brought into great danger, and narrowly escaped, Judges 16:1, and by the other he was betrayed into the hands of the Philistines, having got the secret out of him wherein his great strength lay, Judges 16:4 who having him in their hands, put out his eyes, imprisoned him, and in their idol temple made sport of him, Judges 16:21, where praying for renewed strength from the Lord, he pulled down the temple, and destroyed multitudes with the loss of his own life, Judges 16:26.
