Bible Question: Why did God use Sampson |
Bible Answer: Hi, Kattie... Welcome to the forum! Samson (Judges 11:1-16:31) pictured the Redeemer. Matthew Henry puts it this way: "We never find him at the head either of a court or an army, never upon the throne of judgment nor the field of battle, yet, in his own proper person, a great patriot of his country, and a terrible scourge and check to its enemies and oppressors; he was an eminent believer (Heb. 11:32) and a glorious type of him who with is own arm wrought salvation. The history of the rest of the judges commences from their advancement to that station, but Samson’s begins with his birth, nay, with his conception, no less than an angel from heaven ushers him into the world, as a pattern of what should be afterwards done to John Baptist and to Christ." In Him, Doc |
