Learn the story of Samson in this animated short from BimBam. Samson: the judge with the luxurious locks of hair! His strength, wrapped up in long, flowing hair, was given to him by God to save the Israelites.
But Samson was no faultless hero — rather, he was prone to chasing women (oh Delilah?!) and taking advantage of his legendary strength to win bets and slay armies. His reign of violence put an end to the Judges, causing only momentary peace followed by yet another takeover.
