Samson Gets a Haircut (1x7)

Data di messa in onda: Nov 17, 1991

Samson falls in love with Delilah, even though she too is a Philistine. She is easily bribed by the mayor and the chief of police into betraying Samson. She finds out the secret of his strength — it’s his seven beautiful dreadlocks — and cuts them off. This makes it easy for the Philistines to capture him and tie him up. But Samson has just enough strength left to bring the whole building crashing down on the Philistines, killing everyone, including himself. Canaan remains a divided land: on one side the Israelites, and on the other the Philistines. (Judges 14-16)
