Character History
The Old Testament Beauty Dalila was famous for being seduced by Samson. The love of a woman ruined the Jewish heroes - the beloved turned out to be a traitor, for the sake of enriching the hateful enemies passing the secret.History of appearance
Dalila (Russian form - Dalida) appeared in the book of judges as an example of the fight against the carnal passion. The theologians suggest that the ancestors under the mask of a beautiful seducer meant the devil himself, only the female kind, and allegedly, his name appeared in the source. Only in 16-17, when the Old Testament survived the editorial editors, a frank indication on the textbook temporary tempter was decided to be treated and replaced by neutral Dalila.
The fact that under the image of a cunning girl was hidden by the devil, proves the old picture of Andrea Manteny (presumably the end of the 15th century), on which beauty Dalila aggresses Samson's hair. A tree is growing next to the characters, where Foemina Diabolo is visible, which means "Woman Devil". What Dalile is not about anything.
The tricky book of judges, theologians note the whole importance of the struggle of Christians with a blind lust, because the busty passions are sometimes much harder than to win in the war. Bishop Feeodorite Kirski interprets the plot like this:
"The one who was so valiant was courageous and became famous for the wonderful feats, faced the prisoner of Sostroma. It deprived him and Divine Grace. "Plot and image
The circumstances of the death of Samson Salik are one of the curious windy-market plots. The secret of the hero of the Hero of Ancient Israel, on whose account is dozens of glorious feats, hid in long hair, which she never concerned the scissors. The conquerors of the Jewish lands of the Philistines were not able to overcome heroes, the glory about the power of the hero spread far beyond the world.
Once, Samson was in the enemy city of Gaza, where he met the tricky and insidious Dalil. Before the beauty and mind of the girl, the hero failed to resist and spent the evening in her society. The Philistines found out that on their territory - the mainly inadequate, and the gates were closed to arrange a trap. But at night, Samson killed security and easily went beyond the city. Since then, he has often been to Gaza to enjoy love joy with Black Bludnica Dalila. Israeli strongman always walked in women, but this time as if he lost the mind.
The Philistines decided to take advantage of the weakness of the enemy, asking Dalil for a decent fee to reveal the mystery of the lover's strength. Three times a woman, by drinking the guest of wine, asked about the secret, but Samson came up with non-residents. The tricky Dalila reproached him in dislike, cried and praying to "spare". Finally, the hero surrendered and told that, if aging long hair, the body will become weak and helpless.
The mistress agreed by the seven Kam Samson and issued that enemies who chased the former strongman in the chain and the eyes of his eyes. Raissed Dalila came to the dungeon to the lover asking for forgiveness, swear in love and confessed that he made a treacherous act, fearing to lose the windy Samson. But the Jewish hero did not believe the sweet false speeches of the girl.
The Old Testament accurately indicates the owner of Dalilles to the Philistines, but the details of the origin remain "for the scenes", the reader is content with hints. Probably, a woman, "living in the Valley of the Sorta River", is from the family of a noble class, because the owners of the Philistines personally, without intermediaries, came to ask for the betrayal of Samson.
For services promised a considerable fee - 90 kg of silver. In the artistic processing of the plot and Dalila turns into the heir to the royal order. The traitor is described as a long-legged, with dark eyes of a beauty, which is a rare man of a charming smile.
