"A strong yet very weak man, Samson displays a physical greatness and a lack of self-control. Samson's awesome physical strength is powered by God, while his self-control can only be powered by himself. His lack of self-control allows him to be led by lust and motivated by hopes of power and revenge. Samson demonstrates how self-absorption can lead to the downfall and demise of a person, a marriage, a country, and a covenant with God."
