Delilah (Hebrew for “weakened”, “rooted” or “poverty”, from the root dal, “weak” or “poor”) was the “woman in the valley of Sorek”, whom Samson loved and who was his undoing in the Bible. the book of Judges (chapter 16).
The Philistines, enemies of Israel, went to Delilah to find out the secret of Samson’s power. Three times Delilah asked Samson the secret of her strength, and three times he gave her the wrong answer, a lie. Fourth, he told the real reason (that she didn’t cut her hair to fulfill his oath to God) and Delilah betrayed him along with his enemies.
