The Birth of a Savior

This morning we come to the last of the 12 judges, a man named Samson. Samson is the climatic judge in the book. The author wants us to see something unique about Samson. Although he was a deeply flawed hero, we see in him wonderful hints of the perfect Savior and Judge to come. More than any other judge, Samson is prefiguring Christ and preparing us for God's Messiah.
