Judges 13:24
Samson - The etymology is doubtful. Perhaps it comes from a word signifying "to minister," in allusion to his Nazaritic consecration to the service of God.
22 And Manoah said to his wife, a“We shall surely die, because we have seen God!”
23 But his wife said to him, “If the Lord had desired to kill us, He would not have accepted a burnt offering and a grain offering from our hands, nor would He have shown us all these things, nor would He have told us such things as these at this time.”
24 So the woman bore a son and called his name aSamson; and bthe child grew, and the Lord blessed him.
25 aAnd the Spirit of the Lord began to move upon him at1 Mahaneh Dan bbetween Zorah and cEshtaol.
