Jueces 14:20 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 14:20

But Samson's wife was given to his companion
By her father, and with her consent, both being affronted and provoked by Samson leaving her, who judged her not only to be injured, but hereby discharged from him, and free to marry another:

and whom he had used as his friend;
though there were thirty of them that were his companions, yet there was one of them that was the principal of them, and was the most intimate with him, whom he used in the most friendly manner, and admitted to a more free conversation than the rest, the same that is called the friend of the bridegroom, ( John 3:29 ) while the others were called the children of the bridechamber, ( Matthew 9:15 ) . It is not unlikely that this person had too much intimacy with Samson's wife before, and so had the secret of the riddle from her, and so very readily married her, as soon as Samson departed; and all this furnished out an occasion and opportunity, which Samson sought for, to be revenged on the Philistines, as in the following chapter.

Jueces 14:20 In-Context

18 Antes de la puesta del sol del séptimo día los hombres de la ciudad le dijeron:«¿Qué es más dulce que la miel?¿Qué es más fuerte que un león?»Sansón les respondió:«Si no hubieran arado con mi novilla,no habrían resuelto mi adivinanza».

19 Entonces el Espíritu del SEÑOR vino sobre Sansón con poder, y este descendió a Ascalón y derrotó a treinta de sus hombres, les quitó sus pertenencias y les dio sus ropas a los que habían resuelto la adivinanza. Luego, enfurecido, regresó a la casa de su padre.

20 Entonces la esposa de Sansón fue entregada a uno de los que lo habían acompañado en su boda.
