Barnes' Notes
<< Judges 16:19   Judges 16:21 >>


Judges 16:20

The possession of his extraordinary strength is ascribed (e. g. Judges 13:25) to the presence of the Spirit of the Lord. Now the Lord, or the Spirit of the Lord, had departed from him, and so his strength had gone too. The practical lesson against the presumption of self-dependence, and the all-importance of a hearty dependence upon God' s Holy Spirit, must not be overlooked.
