My neighbor Larry showed me a black-and-white photo of his cat, but this is a colorful story. In my Sunday post, I promised to tell you about his cat, saying it was "a big cat, in need of a big name." They named the cat Samson. Why Samson? Maybe because Samson is known as the strong man in the Bible, and the cat has a 13-inch tail and huge paws.
Judges 16:1-31 says that Samson was a Nazirite who was given immense strength to aid him against his enemies. He demolished the Philistine temple of the god Dagon, at Gaza, destroying both his captors and himself in the process (Judges 16:4–30). Is the cat that strong? I doubt it, but he's a BIG cat.
