Trouble at Timnah (Samson and Judah)
Alastair RobertsTrouble at Timnah (Samson and Judah)
A discussion of parallels between Judah's story in Genesis 38 and the story of Samson in Judges 14-16. Thanks to Scott Fairbanks for highlighting some of these and James Bejon for highlighting others. I got the connection between the three failed attempts of Delilah to bind Samson and the earlier failures of the Philistines against him from John Barach's Theopolis series on the book: https://theopolisinstitute.com/downloads/joshua-judges-and-ruth_29291.
