Don’t forget you can watch this episode on YouTube: http://bit.ly/2D1T53r
Samson is not a likable guy, and this week we start to see why as he begins to interact with the Philistines. Emily and Nathan ask the question, does God approve of Samson’s new bride? And we explore the connection between Samson and the ancient chaos monsters, Hercules, and Ekidu. Then things get really crazy as we consider other Biblical stories where women are involved in events that are defined by “seeing” and “taking.”
