9 Judges 13:1-15:20 "Samson: Disgrace & Grace from the Sordid Story of Samson."

Sean Doyle Season 3 Episode 9

We'd love to hear from you. Text us.

Today we come to Samson, the last judge chronicled in the book of Judges. Samson was a he-man with a she weakness.  Samson is probably the most well-known of all the Judges & yet he is the least heroic, least obedient, & least commendable.  Samson is far from a paragon of virtue & so his judgeship demonstrates the sad state of affairs when everyone does what is right in their own eyes. In Judges, it becomes hard to find a hero among the zeros.  Samson for the most part is a zero, but within the Samson story, there is a hero.  That hero is God.  For even in the dark days of judges, even when Samson is largely a disgrace, God’s grace is still present, lavish, & triumphant.
