Judges 13
Book of Judges, chapter 13 / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Judges 13 is the thirteenth chapter of the Book of Judges in the Old Testament or the Hebrew Bible.[1] According to Jewish tradition the book was attributed to the prophet Samuel,[2][3] but modern scholars view it as part of the Deuteronomistic History, which spans in the books of Deuteronomy to 2 Kings, attributed to nationalistic and devotedly Yahwistic writers during the time of the reformer Judean king Josiah in 7th century BCE.[3][4] This chapter records the activities of judges Samson.[5] belonging to a section comprising Judges 13 to 16 and Judges 6:1 to 16:31.[6]
