EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Samson taken by the Philistines - Bible" captures a pivotal moment in biblical history. The image depicts Samson, the legendary figure known for his immense strength, being deceived and captured by the Philistines. The scene is filled with tension as Samson finds himself ensnared in a web of betrayal orchestrated by Delilah. With her cunning words, she reveals to him that the Philistines are upon him, leading to his capture and subsequent loss of power. The caption accompanying this powerful image quotes Judges 16:20 from the Bible: "And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson". These words serve as a chilling reminder of the treachery that led to Samson's downfall. Printed within Payne's Illustrated Family Bible during the 19th century, this engraving transports us back in time to an era steeped in religious significance. It serves as a visual representation of one of literature's most iconic tales and offers insight into ancient history and antiquity. Through its intricate details and masterful craftsmanship, this print brings to life an important moment from the Old Testament.
