Episode 099: The Book of Judges Part 4. May 10, 2024

Paul & Mike wrap up their discussion of the Judges with the legendary superhero, Samson. Warriors identify with Samson because even with his many flaws, he had purpose and undaunted courage. Samson is the only named Nazirite in the Bible. As a Nazirite, Samson was set apart for a sacred task, which was to begin the defeat of the Philistines. However, Samson broke his vow, showing that he, like so many other warriors in the Bible, was still very much human, but still possessing God's favor even with his many shortcomings.
