It is difficult to determine whether or not Samson was a real life character whose attributes were amplified in the Book of Judges. Even with that, it is very likely that he actually existed, given that it would be irrational for someone to write regarding an Israelite who committed acts that were morally wrong.

It is understandable that Samson's main weakness was his attraction toward women, since his quick anger cannot actually be considered to be a flaw. It is because of women that Samson is constantly defeated by the Philistines. While Samson was not exactly pure in his character, he did not attempt to go against God's will and accepted his faith when he realized that he could complete God's desire through doing so.

Samson's determination to stay with Delilah has no limits, as even when he is certain that she is trying to sell him over a few coins of silver he does not attempt to stop her. He engages in a cat and mouse game, but cannot resist Delilah and eventually tells his/her secret (Jackson).

When all seems lost and Samson stands blind in the temple of Dagon, he makes one final attempt to reach God, asking for His assistance in bringing down the building and thus concomitantly achieving revenge and completing his mission. This event demonstrates that God trusted Samson all the time, even when the man failed to put across dedication toward the divine. The fact that God does not hesitate to come to Samson's help in the final moments of his life shows that the judge was devoted to serving his Lord (Jackson).
