Samson as a type of Christ

Samson had his faults for sure, but we can still detect elements of his life that made him a type of Christ.

He was set apart from birth to serve God.

He was a man of incredible strength.

He judged Israel (and the heathen).

He was betrayed by one he loved.

He was forsaken by God for a time.

He was mocked by everyone around him, while in a weakened, wounded state.

He died praying.

His death was a greater attack on the enemy than his life.
