Of all the stories we're familiar with Samson, there is nothing more memorable than the events in chapter 15 in the book of Judges.
Samson was out harvesting and then decided to bring her new bride a young goat. His father-in-law stopped him and told him that he thought Samson hated his daughter and gave her to one of Samson's friends.
Samson became violently angry. He burned all the wheat fields of the Philistines. The Philistines then started attacking the the men of Judah. When they questioned the Philistines, they told the men of Judah what Samson had done.
The men tied Samson up and sent him to the Philistines. Suddenly, God's power came to Samson and he broke free of the ropes. Then, he found the jawbone of a dead donkey and subsequently killed 1000 Philistines.
