Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her. And it was told the Gazites, saying, Samson is come hither. And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning, when it is day, we shall kill him. And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron.-Judges 16:1-3***Over 800 years after Laban the Syrian (Aramean) was told by family members that Jacob (Israel) had moved with his family away from Laban's property, the Philistines in Gaza were told that Samson was in their city. Samson was an Israelite from the tribe of Dan, descended from Jacob and maidservant Bilhah, and Jacob and Bilhah's firstborn son Dan. Samson had previously married a Philistine woman in Timnath, killed 30 Philistine men in Ashkelon, burned Philistine crops, discovered that the Philistines burned his bride and her father, killed more Philistines after the discovery, was taken into custody by Israelites from the tribe of Judah to be given to the Philistines, was freed according to the will of the Lord God, and killed a multitude of Philistines with the bone of a dead donkey's jaw. In Gaza, the Philistines made plans to capture Samson. Over 40 years after Samson died while causing a multitude of Philistines to die, some Israelites from Ziph told King Saul that David was hiding in their region. Saul, the 1st king to reign over the Israelites in the Promised Land, was from the tribe of Benjamin, descended from Jacob and his 2nd wife Rachel, and Jacob and Rachel's 2nd and last son Benjamin. David and the Ziphities were from the tribe of Judah, descended from Jacob and his 1st wife Leah, and Jacob and Leah's 4th born son Judah. Approximately 1,000 years after David became the 2nd king to reign over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Less than 33 1/2 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Judas Iscariot, the disciple and apostle, told the chief priests and their officers that he would accept 30 pieces of silver to betray Jesus and deliver Jesus to them.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges, 1 Samuel 1:1-3:21, 8:1-31:13, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-2:12, 1 Chronicles 1:1-4:43, 8:1-40, 9:35-29:30, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
