This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jdg_15:1 But it came to pass within a while after, in the time of wheat harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a kid; and he said, I will go in to my wife into the chamber. But her father would not suffer him to go in.
Ver. 1. But it came to pass within a while after.] When Samson had now digested the wrong his wife had done by disclosing his secrets, as Fulvia did Catiline’s. Married couples must either not fall out, or not go long unreconciled -
“ Qum modo pugnarant iungant sua rostra columbae. ” - Ovid.
Visited his wife with a kid.] As a token of his kindness. So Isaac feasted Abimelech and his company, {Gen_26:30} to show that there was no rancour, or purpose of revenge. Feasting together hath, as Athenaeus saith of wine, åëêõóôéêïí ôé ðñïò öéëéáí a force to make men friends.
