Samson is special. An angel came to his mother to announce his birth, and he went through life with super strength. The problem was that Samson went places he wasn't supposed to go and wanted things he wasn't supposed to want. It turned out badly. He got what he wanted, and was betrayed by it and it led to his enslavement. Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.
