Judges 15:1 - John Wesley's Notes

Judges 15:1

Samson Defeats the Philistines

1 After a while, in the time of wheat harvest, it happened that Samson visited his wife with a ^ayoung goat. And he said, “Let me go in to my wife, into her room.” But her father would not permit him to go in.

2 Her father said, “I really thought that you thoroughly ^ahated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Is not her younger sister better than she? Please, take her instead.”

3 And Samson said to them, “This time I shall be blameless regarding the Philistines if I harm them!”

4 Then Samson went and caught three hundred foxes; and he took torches, turned the foxes tail to tail, and put a torch between each pair of tails.
