What is significant about Samson’s calling the Timnite woman “my wife”?
Judges 15:1 (ESV)
1After some days, at the time of wheat harvest, Samson went to visit his wife with a young goat. And he said, “I will go in to my wife in the chamber.” But her father would not allow him to go in.
Samson believes he is still married to the Timnite, which is not unreasonable since in those days, betrothals were legally binding.
