Life of Samson

This Rose pamphlet titled the Life of Samson gives loads of information and facts in a nutshell through many eye-catching charts, a timeline and a map of the events in Samson life. Samson was one of the best known of Israel’s judges. Many amazing facts about Samson are given such as his miraculous birth foretold by an angel, the fact that he was a Nazarite, and his many physical acts of strengths. Until I did a study of the book of Judges, I always thought of Samson as a hero delivering the people of Israel from the Philistines. As a Nazarite Samson broke many of his vows and was selfish in his pursuit of foreign women. The mercy and grace that God showered on the children of Israel shows us how He used Samson and Israel despite their disobedience and flawed behavior. One chart compares events in the life Samson and the nation of Israel. The cycle demonstrated in the book of Judges of Israel’s disobedience, oppression, and deliverance is shown in a bold graphic. This is a nice compact study tool for information on the life of Samson. Rose Publishing gave me this PDF file for my honest review.
