Samson

Language & etymology

What the name means.

Shimshon is generally connected with shemesh, “sun.” Consecrated strength is a devotional theme, not a literal translation. Samson is a biblical person, not a divine name.

Shin 300 + Mem 40 + Shin 300 + Vav 6 + Nun 50 = 696

Numeric value is a traditional interpretive practice; it is not the word’s etymology and does not establish doctrine.

Paleo-Hebrew character

A devotional reflection.

These ancient Hebrew-script forms accompany a devotional meditation, not a historical translation or proof of etymology. Letter-picture associations are interpretive and do not establish doctrine.

Promise & devotional meaning

What it reveals.

Gifts are entrusted by God, not proof of human invulnerability.
