Chapter 14

Samson goes to Timnah.  There he sees a Philistine woman and he tells his parents to get her for him as his wife.  They try to talk him out of it, but he wants this woman, this Philistine woman.

Samson prepares a wedding feast.  He tells the riddle of the lion carcass with honey in it, and gives them seven days to solve it.  They coerce his wife by threatening to burn her and her father's house, and she coerces Samson.  He tells her the answer, she tells them.  Samson knows what has happened so he kills thirty other Philistines and gives their clothing to those men at the feast.  He is very angry and goes home.  His new (ex-?) wife is given to the best man.  So even here, at the very beginning of his adult life, Samson has problems with women
