《士師記》第十四章：參孫的婚姻、謎語與上帝的旨意
親愛的弟兄姊妹，平安！
今天我們一起來研讀《士師記》第十四章，了解參孫的故事，思想其中的屬靈教訓，並在最後一同禱告，求主安定我們煩躁、紛亂的心，使我們在生活中學習仰望神、順服神。
一、士師記第十四章的內容敘述
本章主要記載參孫與非利士女子的婚事、獅子事件、蜂蜜的由來，以及參孫與非利士人之間的衝突。
1. 參孫看中非利士女子（1–4節）
參孫下到亭拿，看見一個非利士女子，就回去告訴父母，要求他們替自己娶這個女子為妻。
他的父母希望他從自己的同族中選擇妻子，便問他為何要娶未受割禮的非利士女子。但參孫堅持自己的選擇。
第4節提到，參孫的父母不知道這事是出於耶和華，因為耶和華正在尋找機會攻擊非利士人，當時非利士人正轄制以色列人。
屬靈提醒：
參孫看重自己的喜好，卻沒有充分考慮父母的勸告及信仰上的原則。
這提醒我們：
做重要決定時，不要只憑自己的感覺。
要學習聆聽長輩與屬靈同伴的勸告。
要在禱告中尋求神的帶領，而不是只求神成就自己的心願。
值得留意的是，神能在人的軟弱與複雜處境中成就祂的旨意，但這不代表人的每一個選擇都合乎神的心意。
2. 參孫徒手殺死獅子（5–9節）
參孫與父母前往亭拿時，遇到一隻少壯獅子向他吼叫。
耶和華的靈大大感動參孫，使他有能力徒手撕裂獅子，卻沒有把這件事告訴父母。
後來，參孫再次經過那個地方，看見獅子的屍體中有一群蜜蜂和蜂蜜。他取了蜂蜜來吃，也拿給父母吃，只是沒有告訴他們蜂蜜的來源。
屬靈提醒：
參孫的力量不是單單來自他自己，而是與耶和華的靈感動他有關。
我們在生活中也會遇到各種困難，有時候覺得自己沒有能力承擔。但我們可以向神禱告，求祂賜我們勇氣、智慧與力量。
然而，參孫的經歷也提醒我們：有能力，不代表生命的每一個方面都成熟；蒙神使用，也不代表可以忽略聖潔與順服。
我們需要的不只是能力，更是謙卑倚靠神的心。
3. 參孫設謎語（10–14節）
參孫的父親前去見那女子。參孫按照當時的習俗設宴，邀請了三十個非利士人作伴。
參孫向他們提出一個謎語：
「吃的從吃者出來；甜的從強者出來。」
這個謎語與他先前殺死獅子、後來從獅子屍體中找到蜂蜜的經歷有關。
非利士人不知道答案，因此與參孫約定：如果他們能在七天之內猜出謎底，參孫就給他們三十件裡衣和三十套衣服；如果猜不出來，他們就要給參孫同樣的衣物。
屬靈提醒：
參孫將自己的經歷變成謎語，卻沒有考慮這件事將帶來什麼後果。
這提醒我們，在說話、與人相處，以及面對利益與競爭時，都要謹慎。
我們可以問自己：
我的言語是在建立人，還是在挑起爭端？
我是否太在意輸贏，而忽略了愛與誠實？
當事情不如意時，我是否仍願意保持平靜，尋求神的智慧？
4. 參孫的妻子哭求他說出謎底（15–18節）
非利士人無法解開謎語，便威脅參孫的妻子，要她設法問出答案，否則就要燒死她和她父親全家。
參孫的妻子哭著懇求他透露謎底。參孫起初不願意說，但在她不斷的懇求下，最終告訴了她。
她隨即將答案告訴非利士人。到了第七天，非利士人便回答參孫：
「有什麼比蜜還甜呢？有什麼比獅子還強呢？」
參孫知道他們是從他的妻子那裡得知答案，便說：「你們若不是用我的母牛犢耕地，就猜不出我的謎語來。」
這句話反映出參孫對他們利用妻子取得答案感到不滿。
屬靈提醒：
這段經文讓我們看見，恐懼、壓力、隱瞞和不信任，可能使人際關係陷入更深的衝突。
當我們遇到難以處理的關係時，可以求神幫助我們：
用誠實而溫柔的方式溝通。
不被情緒控制，不輕易說出傷人的話。
在壓力中尋求神的智慧，而不是任由衝突擴大。
5. 參孫擊殺非利士人（19–20節）
耶和華的靈大大感動參孫，他便下到亞實基倫，擊殺了三十個非利士人，取得他們的衣物，交給那些猜出謎底的人。
參孫因這件事非常憤怒，便回到父親家中。他的妻子後來被嫁給了參孫的陪伴者，也就是先前作他朋友的人。
本章以這段令人遺憾的結局收尾，也為後續參孫與非利士人之間更大的衝突埋下伏筆。
屬靈提醒：
憤怒若沒有受到約束，容易使衝突加劇，甚至帶來更大的傷害。
聖經並沒有要求我們假裝自己從不生氣，而是提醒我們，要把自己的情緒帶到神面前，求祂幫助我們以合宜的方式回應。
當心裡煩躁、受傷或感到不公平時，不妨先停下來禱告，讓神的話語引導我們，而不是立刻按照情緒行事。
二、士師記第十四章帶給我們的五個屬靈功課
1. 不要只憑自己的喜好作決定
參孫的故事提醒我們，人生重要的選擇需要禱告、智慧與分辨。求神幫助我們不只看眼前的吸引力，也看重信仰、品格與長遠的影響。
2. 真正的力量來自神
我們的能力有限，但神能在困境中扶持我們。無論面對工作、家庭或人際關係的挑戰，都可以倚靠主，不必獨自承擔一切。
3. 言語要有智慧，關係需要誠實
不要因為好勝、嫉妒或一時衝動而傷害別人。求神賜我們溫柔的言語，以及願意聆聽、理解與饒恕的心。
4. 把憤怒與紛亂交給神
心裡不平安時，先安靜下來，不急著回應。讓禱告幫助我們整理情緒，求聖靈引導我們選擇和平與正直的道路。
5. 神的旨意不等於認可人的錯誤
神能在人的軟弱中仍然工作，但我們不能因此輕忽自己的責任。蒙恩之後，更要學習悔改、順服，讓生命逐漸成為合神心意的樣式。
三、為我們基督徒禱告：求主安定煩躁紛亂的心
親愛的天父，我們慈愛的主：
感謝祢帶領我們讀完《士師記》第十四章，讓我們從參孫的經歷中，看見人的軟弱，也看見祢仍然掌管一切。
主啊，求祢憐憫我們每一位弟兄姊妹。
有時候，我們的心充滿煩躁、憂慮、壓力和紛亂；有時候，我們面對家庭的問題、人際關係的傷害、生活的重擔，甚至不知道該如何作出正確的決定。
親愛的主，求祢親自安慰我們。
求祢使我們紛亂的心慢慢安靜下來，使我們不再被恐懼牽引，不再被憤怒控制，也不再因別人的言語和態度而失去平安。
主耶穌，求祢幫助我們學習參孫故事中的教訓，使我們不只追求自己的喜好，而是願意尋求祢的旨意；不只依靠自己的能力，而是謙卑地倚靠祢；不讓情緒掌管我們的言語和行為，而是讓聖靈在我們裡面作主。
求聖靈充滿我們，使我們有溫柔的心、清潔的思想、節制的言語，以及分辨是非的智慧。
主啊，求祢特別看顧正在經歷困難的弟兄姊妹。
求祢安慰孤單的人，扶持疲倦的人，醫治受傷的心，賜力量給軟弱的人，也求祢為正在經歷家庭衝突、經濟壓力或心靈不安的人開路。
當我們看不清前面的道路時，求祢作我們的光；當我們感到無力時，求祢成為我們的力量；當我們心中充滿疑惑時，求祢用祢的話語引導我們。
求祢保守我們的教會，使弟兄姊妹彼此相愛、互相扶持，不以批評論斷代替關懷，不以爭執代替溝通，而是以基督的愛彼此建立。
求祢賜福所有牧者、傳道人、服事同工，以及每一位默默為祢擺上的信徒，使我們在忙碌與疲憊之中，仍然記得回到祢面前，領受從祢而來的安息。
主耶穌，求祢幫助我們把憂慮交託給祢，把怒氣交託給祢，把無法解決的事情也交託給祢。
求祢使我們在每天的生活中，學會安靜等候、謙卑順服、凡事禱告，並且相信祢的恩典夠我們用。
願我們不論身處順境或逆境，都能持守信心，仰望祢的帶領，活出榮耀祢的生命。
感謝天父永不離棄我們，感謝主耶穌基督為我們成就救恩，也感謝聖靈時時安慰、提醒和引導我們。
願主的平安充滿每一位弟兄姊妹的心，使我們在紛亂的世界中，仍然能夠安穩地住在祢的愛裡。
我們如此禱告、祈求、感謝，乃是奉主耶穌基督的聖名。
阿們。
四、今日可以默想的經文
「你們要休息，要知道我是神！」——詩篇 46:10
親愛的弟兄姊妹，當你的心感到煩躁、疲倦或紛亂時，不必勉強自己立刻解決所有事情。
你可以先安靜片刻，慢慢呼吸，在心裡向主說：
「主耶穌，我把我的憂慮交給祢。求祢安靜我的心，引導我的腳步，使我今天能靠著祢的恩典，平安地走前面的路。」
願主親自賜福你和所有弟兄姊妹，使我們的心在基督裡得著真正的平安。
願主的恩惠、慈愛與平安，常與我們眾人同在。阿們。
The Book of Judges, Chapter 14
Samson’s Marriage, the Lion, and the Riddle
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, may the peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
Today, let us study Judges Chapter 14, understand its message, reflect on its spiritual lessons, and conclude with a prayer asking God to calm our troubled hearts and strengthen our faith.
1. Summary of Judges Chapter 14
1. Samson chooses a Philistine woman (verses 1–4)
Samson went down to Timnah and saw a Philistine woman whom he wanted to marry. He asked his parents to arrange the marriage. His parents questioned his choice because she was not from their own people, but Samson insisted.
Verse 4 explains that the Lord was working through these circumstances to create an opportunity against the Philistines, who were ruling over Israel.
Spiritual lesson: We should not make important decisions based solely on our desires. We should seek God’s wisdom through prayer, listen to wise counsel, and consider whether our choices honor Him.
God can work even through complicated human circumstances, but this does not mean that every human decision is pleasing to Him.
2. Samson kills a lion (verses 5–9)
As Samson traveled with his parents, a young lion roared at him. The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon Samson, enabling him to tear the lion apart with his bare hands.
Later, Samson returned to the place and discovered that bees had made a hive inside the lion’s carcass. He took some honey and ate it, sharing some with his parents without telling them where it came from.
Spiritual lesson: Samson’s strength reminds us that God can equip us to face challenges beyond our natural abilities.
However, physical strength and spiritual maturity are not the same. We need not only strength, but also wisdom, humility, and obedience to God.
When we face difficulties, we can ask the Lord to give us courage and help us depend on His strength rather than our own.
3. Samson presents a riddle (verses 10–14)
During the wedding feast, Samson presented a riddle to thirty Philistine companions:
“Out of the eater, something to eat; out of the strong, something sweet.”
The answer referred to the lion he had killed and the honey he later discovered in its carcass.
Samson challenged the men to solve the riddle within seven days. If they succeeded, he would give them thirty linen garments and thirty sets of clothes. If they failed, they would owe him the same.
Spiritual lesson: Our words and actions can have consequences we do not anticipate. Pride, competition, and the desire to win can create unnecessary conflict.
We should ask God to help us speak wisely, act with integrity, and value peace more than winning an argument.
4. Samson’s wife reveals the answer (verses 15–18)
The Philistine men threatened Samson’s wife and her family, pressuring her to discover the answer to the riddle. She wept and pleaded with Samson until he finally told her.
She then revealed the answer to the men, who solved the riddle before the deadline.
Samson realized that they had obtained the answer through his wife and responded angrily.
Spiritual lesson: Fear, pressure, secrecy, and mistrust can damage relationships.
When we face difficult relationships, we should ask God to help us communicate honestly, listen patiently, and respond with wisdom rather than anger.
5. Samson takes revenge (verses 19–20)
The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon Samson. He went to Ashkelon, killed thirty Philistine men, took their garments, and gave them to those who had solved the riddle.
Angry over what had happened, Samson returned to his father’s home. His wife was subsequently given to the man who had been his companion at the feast.
The chapter ends with broken relationships and growing conflict between Samson and the Philistines.
Spiritual lesson: Anger that is not wisely managed can lead to greater harm. God understands our feelings, including hurt and disappointment, but He calls us to seek His guidance rather than act impulsively.
When we feel upset or mistreated, we can pause, pray, and ask the Holy Spirit to guide our response.
2. Five spiritual lessons for Christians
1. Seek God before making important decisions
Do not rely only on personal desires or emotions. Pray for wisdom and consider how your decisions will affect your faith, relationships, and future.
2. Depend on God’s strength
We all experience moments of weakness. Through prayer and faith, we can receive courage and wisdom to face life’s challenges.
3. Speak with wisdom and love
Our words can build relationships or destroy them. Ask God to help you speak truthfully, gently, and respectfully, even when disagreements arise.
4. Give your anger and anxiety to God
When your heart feels troubled, take time to pray before reacting. Invite the Holy Spirit to bring peace to your thoughts and guide your actions.
5. God’s sovereignty does not excuse our mistakes
God can work through imperfect circumstances, yet we remain responsible for our choices. We should continue growing in repentance, obedience, humility, and love.
3. A prayer for Christians: Asking God to calm our troubled hearts
Heavenly Father, our loving God,
Thank You for Your Word and for the lessons we have learned from Judges Chapter 14. Through Samson’s life, we see human weakness, the consequences of impulsive decisions, and Your sovereignty even in difficult circumstances.
Dear Lord, we come before You today as Your children.
Sometimes our hearts are restless and troubled. We carry worries about our families, relationships, finances, work, health, and the uncertainties of tomorrow. Sometimes we feel hurt, frustrated, anxious, or overwhelmed, and we do not know what to do.
Father, please have mercy on us and comfort us.
Quiet our restless hearts. Help us release our fears, surrender our anger, and place our worries into Your loving hands. When our thoughts become confused and our emotions overwhelm us, remind us that You are near and that we do not have to face our burdens alone.
Lord Jesus, teach us through Samson’s story.
Help us not to follow our desires blindly, but to seek Your will. Teach us not to depend only on our own strength, but to trust in Your power. Help us control our words, resist impulsive reactions, and pursue peace instead of conflict.
Holy Spirit, fill us with wisdom, patience, gentleness, and self-control.
Give us a humble heart that is willing to listen, a forgiving spirit that releases bitterness, and a discerning mind that recognizes what is right and pleasing to God.
Lord, we especially pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ who are going through difficult times.
Comfort those who feel lonely. Strengthen those who are weary. Heal those whose hearts have been wounded. Give hope to those who feel discouraged, and open a way for those who are struggling with family conflicts, financial pressures, or spiritual burdens.
When we cannot see the way forward, be our light.
When we feel weak, be our strength.
When we are confused, guide us through Your Word.
When we are impatient, teach us to wait upon You.
When we are angry, help us respond with grace and wisdom.
Father, please bless our churches, pastors, ministers, church leaders, and every brother and sister who serves You faithfully. Help us love one another sincerely, encourage one another in difficult seasons, and build one another up in the faith.
Keep our churches united in Christ. May we replace criticism with compassion, hostility with understanding, and division with the love of Jesus.
Lord, help us remember to return to You in prayer, even when life becomes busy and exhausting.
Teach us to surrender our worries to You, to trust You with the things we cannot change, and to walk forward one day at a time in Your grace.
May Your peace fill our hearts and homes. May Your love strengthen our families. May Your wisdom guide our decisions, and may our lives bring glory to Your holy name.
Thank You, Heavenly Father, for never abandoning Your children. Thank You, Lord Jesus, for Your saving grace. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for comforting, teaching, and guiding us each day.
May we remain faithful to You in both good times and difficult times, trusting that Your grace is sufficient for us.
We ask all these things in the precious and holy name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
4. A Bible verse to meditate on today
“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10 (KJV)
Dear brothers and sisters, when your heart feels restless, anxious, or overwhelmed, remember that you do not have to solve every problem at once.
Take a quiet moment before God. Breathe slowly and pray:
“Lord Jesus, I place my worries into Your hands. Please calm my heart, guide my steps, and help me walk peacefully through this day. Teach me to trust You, even when I cannot understand everything that is happening. May Your peace rule in my heart. Amen.”
May the Lord bless you and all our brothers and sisters in Christ.
May His grace sustain us, His love surround us, and His peace remain with us each day.
May the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
