Judges study chapter

Judges 14

c. 1075 BCSamson’s riddle and marriage feast at Timnah end in anger and bloodshed.

Against his parents’ objection, Samson insists on marrying a Philistine woman of Timnah. On the way he tears apart a lion with his bare hands, and later finds honey in its carcass, which becomes a riddle at his wedding feast. When his bride pressures him and the guests solve the riddle, the Spirit rushes on him and he kills thirty men to pay his wager, then leaves in fury.
