There is a right and a wrong marriage. Samson chose a wrong way to marry without seeking God's counsel and without parental consent. However, his parents went with him to ask for the girl's hand in marriage and for the traditional marriage feast.
Samson did not go with his Israelite brethren, so his in-law organized thirty Philistine companions for him. Samson posed a riddle with a reward of thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing.
As the Philistines could not solve the riddle, they threatened Samson's spouse to entice him for the explanation of the riddle or risk destruction of her father's house.
She got the answer from Samson and revealed to her people. Samson angrily provided the reward, and abandoned the woman who was then given as a wife to another. ( Judges 13:1-25 ).
Young people should seek for and obey the cousel of God and their godly parents when they want to marry.
Any marriage built on a wrong foundation will not stand. Christians should marry fellow Christians with the fear of God for successful marriages since the Bible warns about unequal yoking with unbeliever ( 11 Corinthians 614-16 )
Are you already married? Love your wife as a husband and as a wife submit to your husband to enjoy your marriage. Avoid secrecy and pretense like Samson's wife, which cause marital problems.
Are you looking for a spouse? Follow God's will in marriage and you will be blessed in your marriage.
