Samson - Samson very strong. Philistines concoct a ruse to unravel his strength. They get Delilah, but the fourth time he reveals his real secret. In his sleep Delilah cuts his long hair and the Philistines find little resistance in him. Moments later, he ends up in a cell and the enemy celebrates. But Samson's hair is already growing back and while the Philistines are still celebrating their victory, God grants Samson enough strength to destroy the entire building.
