Judges 14:6 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Came mightily upon him; stirred up and increased his courage and bodily strength. As he would have rent a kid; as soon and as safely. He told not his father or his mother, lest by their means it should be publicly known; for he wisely considered that it was not yet a fit time to awaken the jealousies and fears of the Philistines concerning him, as this would have done.

Judges 14:6

6 And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand: but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.
