Ok so I'll start off by saying that this was probably the weirdest story I have read so far. There are a lot of things I take issue with there but I'll keep this post to one part of the story.
So as part of the vow between God and Samson, Samson couldn't cut his hair, drink alcohol or become unclean by touching a dead animal. The issue I want to raise is the last part, becoming unclean. At two separate instances Samson touches a dead animal. The first is when he retrieved the honey from the dead lion, and the second is when he killed 1000 philistines with the jawbone of a donkey. I didn't see anything come from those incidents. Did I miss something or was he punished for those specific acts?
Good questions......
I term myself Messianic Gentile and I have seriously considered becoming Jewish as long as I did not have to deny my belief in Messiah Yeshua - Jesus as Messiah the Passover Lamb in order to do so.
I have actually thought about the Nazarite vow.....
even though I do find that growing a beard is quite annoying but......
I now know that MSM decreases the level of itching.
One part of the reason could be that both the jawbone of the ass..... as well as the skeleton of the lion could have been picked entirely clean of all flesh and were down to nothing more than clean white bone..... but that is just a guess.
