II.Israel’s Spiritual Condition (13:1) A.Israel again did evil B.Given over to Philistines for 40 years C.What is not said: 1. That they were horribly oppressed 2. That they cried out for help D.Why is Israel content in her bondage? 1. Security 2. Pluralism 3. Sensuality is permitted, even encouraged. 4. Does this sound familiar?

III.The First Angelic Visitation (13:2-7) A.Manoah is introduced (13:2). B.The Angel of the Lord appears to Mrs. Manoah (13:2-5). 1. No plea from her for a child (cf. 1 Sam. 1) 2. Her barren condition will be reversed 3. Drink no wine or alcohol, eat nothing unclean, hair to remain uncut 4. The boy to be a Nazirite from birth 5.

His wife’s words of assurance V.The Birth and Growth of Samson A.The Lord blessed him (13:24) B.The Lord’s Spirit began to “stir” him (13:25)

VI.Conclusion A.What should the reader expect in coming chapters? B.What will the reality be? C.Why does God impose the Nazirite vow on Samson and his mother? D.What advantages does Samson enjoy? E.Why, then, does Samson fail so badly? F.What does this teach Israel? G.What does this text teach us?
