圣经经文

在旧约时代，有个叫做参孙的大力士，他的头发给了他如公牛般力气，但没人知道这个气力的真正来源。直到有一天，他的爱人黛利拉背叛他，把这个秘密告诉了娘家，同时也是参孙的敌人非利士人。于是，非利士人等到参孙熟睡时剃去他的七绺头发，使得他毫无力气，并剜了他的双眼，用铜链铐住她的手脚，把他送进牢中。这时，参孙的头发慢慢地长出来了，他也恢复了力气。为了报复和雪耻，他摧毁了非利士人的宴会厅，与他的敌人同归于尽。参孙的力大无穷在历史上留下了印记。“参孙的柱”（Samson post）意为“起重柱”，即支撑着甲板上的梁柱或运送导向块的坚固柱子。“参孙的头发”（Samson’s hair）则成为一些织发中心的品牌名称。如果你说某某是参孙，你是在夸他力量非凡。
