Samson was one of the first superheroes. Possessed of both wit and strength, he confounded his enemies with riddles and performed super-human feats of violence. He killed a lion with his bare hands. He killed thirty men at one time all by himself. He caught 300 foxes, tied them in pairs by their tails, fastening a torch to each pair. They went wild and burned the grain fields of the Philistines. When they came out, Samson struck them “hip and thigh with a great blow.”
