Samson Defeats The Philistines

But now must I die of thirst and fall into hands of the Philistines?" 19 So God split open the basin at Lehi and water flowed out from it. When he took a drink, his strength was restored and he revived. For this reason he named the spring En Hakkore. It remains in Lehi to this very day.
