Lessons from The Woman in Timnah on Learning from Mistakes

Lessons from The Woman in Timnah on Learning from Mistakes

For the last 2 weeks we have been studying the women in Samson's life. So far we've looked at:

  1. His mother: and what she had to teach us about leading by example

For those who may be unfamiliar with Delilah, she can be found in Judges 16. Prior to meeting her, Samson had, had quite a few altercations with the Philistines (Judges 14:19, Judges 15:4-8 and Judges 15:14-17), meaning that they wanted to destroy him. The only problem was that his great strength prevented them from doing so. As such, sensing that his love for Delilah might be the chink in his armour, the lords of the Philistines approached her...
