Transcription: When Samson entered the picture, the Israelites were once again suffering under foreign domination. An angel announced his birth, making clear that God had great things in store for Samson and wanted him specially set apart. Indeed, Samson was blessed with extraordinary supernatural gifts. When the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, he could tackle a lion or single-handedly rout an entire army. And yet, as the stories from his youth reveal, Samson wielded that strength in ways more befitting a juvenile delinquent than a spiritual leader.
