1. Judges 15:2 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

Why should his father-in-law’s offer have been appealing to Samson?

Judges 15:2 (ESV)

2 And her father said, “I really thought that you utterly hated her, so I gave her to your companion. Is not her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please take her instead.”

Samson has been operating according to what seems right in his eyes. So this offer of his wife’s younger, more beautiful sister should have been appealing to him. But no one can tell Samson how to find a wife. He expected to return to his wife, as if nothing has happened.
