The woman who seduced Samson into revealing the secret of his strength
The Philistine lords bribed her to discover the source of Samson's supernatural strength (Judges 16). She nagged him relentlessly until he finally told her about his uncut hair — the sign of his Nazirite vow. She had his head shaved while he slept — the Philistines captured him. One of the Bible's most famous betrayals.
