Самсон — израильский богатырь, прославившийся в войнах с филистимлянами. Однажды на него напал лев, и Самсон растерзал его голыми руками. Много раз враги израильтян, филистимляне, покушались убить его, но всегда безуспешно. Любовь к филистимлянке Далиле погубила Самсона. Узнав, что сила героя заключается в его длинных волосах, она во время сна остригла ему волосы и передала в руки филистимлян. Язычники, выколов глаза, посадили Самсона в темницу. Согласно Ветхому Завету однажды мучители вывели Самсона на всенародное поругание в свой языческий храм. Самсон попросил отрока, водившего его за руку, подвести его к двум колоннам, на которых держалось все здание, чтобы прислониться к ним. Помолившись Богу, он уперся в столбы руками и сдвинул их с места. Здание обрушилось. Под развалинами здания погибли все филистимляне, бывшие там, а с ними и сам Самсон.
