A biblical figure famous for superhuman strength, or any person of extraordinary strength.
From Hebrew 'Shimshon' meaning 'of the sun'; the name appears in the Bible as a judge and warrior whose strength came from his uncut hair, and the name has become synonymous with strength itself.
Samson's strength connected to his hair is actually a metaphor in ancient Hebrew literature—long hair symbolized vitality and connection to God, so cutting it away represented losing divine power, not physical strength like modern stories suggest.
