Jue. 16:6,13,16• 6Y Dalila dijo á Samsón: Yo te ruego que me declares en qué consiste tu grande fuerza, y cómo podrás ser atado para ser atormentado.

• But the enemy succeeded in robbing him of that which he had so carefully concealed. The world has an insidious effect upon us, leading to loss of our communion with God. If our hearts, like Samson's, in any way cling to what the world may present to us, it will not be long before we lose our communion. (“Samson: the Serpent and the Lion, the Feast: Judges 14” by H.L. Rossier)
• He was betrayed by the very woman of his choice. One can scarcely conceive that association with the world would produce the bad results which, as a matter of fact, it does. Samson would never have thought that his thirty companions aided by his wife, would lay traps to plunder him, for the thirty changes of garments by right belonged to him. (“Samson: the Serpent and the Lion, the Feast: Judges 14” by H.L. Rossier)
