2008-03-23来源:
《旧约.士师记》中的以色列战士英雄。天使曾告诉他的母亲,她将生下一个献身于上帝的儿子,并且他的头发始终不能被剪掉。参孙有过许多强有力的行为,比如杀死一头狮子和移动加萨之门。在他向一位非利士妇女大利拉透露了头发是他的力量之源这一秘密后,大利拉趁他熟睡时剪掉他的头发,让他失去了力量。非利士人还弄瞎了他的眼睛,使他成为奴隶。后来参孙重新获得了力量,他将寺庙内的一根立柱推倒,当时有3,000非利士人聚集在寺庙中,他们与参孙一同被砸死。


Israelite warrior hero of the Old Testament Book of Judges. His mother had been told by an angel that she would bear a son whose life would be dedicated to God and whose hair must never be cut. Samson performed many powerful acts, including slaying a lion and moving the gates of Gaza. When he revealed to a Philistine woman, Delilah, that his hair was the source of his strength, she shaved his head while he was sleeping, leaving him powerless. He was blinded and enslaved by the Philistines, but later his strength was restored and he pulled down the pillars of a temple where 3,000 Philistines had gathered, killing them and himself.
