The Secret of Delia's Strength

Samson was a Nazarite dedicated to God from his mother's womb. He told Delia that if anyone ties him securely with new ropes and they have never been used, he'll become weak as any other man. She took the seven braids out of his head, weld them into fabric and tightened it with a pin. The rulers of the Philistines returned with the silver in their hands after putting him to sleep on her lap. They called for someone to shave off the seven braided of his hair and so began to subdue him.
