Jueces 15:3 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 15:3

And Samson said concerning them
His wife's father, and other relations, and the citizens of Timnath; this, which is what follows, he said either within himself respecting them, or he said it to them openly and publicly before them all:

now shall I be more blameless than the Philistines, though I do them a
displeasure;
signifying, that if he did them an ill thing, or what might be reckoned an injury to their persons or properties, and which would be disagreeable and displeasing to them, they could not justly blame him for it, since they had given him such a provocation as to dispose of his wife to another man; though Samson did not mean to act, nor did he act in the following instances as a private person taking private revenge, but as a public person, and judge of Israel; and took occasion, from the private injuries done him, to avenge the public ones of the children of Israel upon the Philistines; and they might thank themselves for giving the opportunity, which they could not justly condemn him for taking.

Jueces 15:3 In-Context

1 Pasado alg煤n tiempo, durante la cosecha de trigo, Sans贸n tom贸 un cabrito y fue a visitar a su esposa.鈥擵oy a la habitaci贸n de mi esposa 鈥攄ijo 茅l.Pero el padre de ella no le permiti贸 entrar,
2 sino que le dijo:鈥擸o estaba tan seguro de que la odiabas, que se la di a tu amigo. 驴Pero acaso no es m谩s atractiva su hermana menor? T贸mala para ti, en lugar de la mayor.
3 Sans贸n replic贸:鈥斅sta vez s铆 que no respondo por el da帽o que les cause a los filisteos!
4 As铆 que fue y caz贸 trescientas zorras, y las at贸 cola con cola en parejas, y a cada pareja le amarr贸 una antorcha;
5 luego les prendi贸 fuego a las antorchas y solt贸 a las zorras por los sembrados de los filisteos. As铆 incendi贸 el trigo que ya estaba en gavillas y el que todav铆a estaba en pie, junto con los vi帽edos y olivares.
