![]() All the characters (many not mentioned by name in the scriptures) are elaborated upon, as is the situation between the Israelites and the Philistines. Reviewed by Chip_douglas 8 / 10 When the Son of the Sun met DesireĪlthough their story in the Old Testament only spans three chapters in the Book of Judges, the popular tale of Samson and Delilah is stretched out into a three hour entry mini series here. ![]() ![]() Since then Naomi has not only been in mourning, but. When she was a small child, her village was exterminated by the Philistines and her whole family butchered. During a walk Samson learns the young woman's story. Naomi, a pretty but rather melancholic girl, falls deeply in love with him. As time passes, Samson becomes an attractive young man and young women begin to interest him more and more. Samson is born and as foretold he grows into a boy with amazing strength. The stranger tells her that as one chosen by God Samson will fight the Philistines, will have immense strength at his disposal, but that he may never cut his hair (or drink alcohol) otherwise this gift will be lost. One day, a mysterious stranger appears to Mara and promises her that she will bear a son whom she is to call Samson. Much to their regret, they have not been able to have children. Mara and her husband Manoa are both upstanding and religious Israelites living under the harsh and unjust rule of the Philistines.
