Samson

Samson was a mighty warrior and the last of the judges of ancient Israel. He was given immense strength by God to aid him against his enemies, and he performed many superhuman feats, including slaying a lion with his bare hands and massacring an entire army of Philistines using only the jawbone of a donkey. However, Samson's strength was dependent on his long hair, and when his lover Delilah betrayed him and cut his hair, he lost his power. The Philistines captured Samson and gouged out his eyes, then forced him to grind grain in a mill. But Samson's hair began to grow back, and when the Philistines took him to their temple of Dagon, he prayed to God and miraculously recovered his strength. Samson then brought down the pillars of the temple, collapsing it and killing himself and all of the Philistines. Samson is a popular figure in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions, and he has been the subject of many works of art and literature.
