judges 14:19 Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon him mightily, and he went down to Ashkelon and killed thirty of them and took their spoil, and gave the changes [of clothes] to those who told the riddle. And his anger burned, and he went up to his father's house.


      Jud 14:19, 20. HE SLAYS THIRTY PHILISTINES.

      19, 20. went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them--This town was about twenty-four miles west by southwest from Timnah; and his selection of this place, which was dictated by the Divine Spirit, was probably owing to its bitter hostility to Israel.
      took their spoil--The custom of stripping a slain enemy was unknown in Hebrew warfare.
