Commentary on Judges 16:13

Theological / Devotional

With the web. With almost incredible levity and folly, Samson here goes to the very verge of the true secret, and suffers his hair to be woven in Delilah’s loom. No doubt she flattered him by praising his manly strength, and professing a lover’s curiosity, insidiously asked again for the secret of his strength. Samson lightly turned her aside by suggesting that if she wove his hair into the loom, perhaps using it as the woof, he would not have the power to free himself.
