Who has power in his hair on the Bible?

Samson
Samson, Hebrew Shimshon, legendary Israelite warrior and judge, or divinely inspired leader, renowned for the prodigious strength that he derived from his uncut hair. He is portrayed in the biblical Book of Judges (chapters 13–16).

Who lost their strength when their hair was cut?

Samson confessed that he would lose his strength “if my head were shaved” (Judges 16:15- 17). While he slept, the faithless Delilah brought in a Philistine who cut Samson’s hair, draining his strength.

Why did Samson keep telling Delilah?

Because of the lust of his eyes, Samson went after Philistine women instead of one from his people. Because of Delilah’s constant pestering, Samson told her how he receives his strength. As a result, the Philistines put out his eyes (the same eyes he lusted after women for.)

How did Samson regain his strength?

After being granted permission, he prays to God and miraculously recovers his strength, allowing him to bring down the columns, collapsing the temple and killing himself as well as all of the Philistines. In some Jewish traditions, Samson is believed to have been buried in Zorah in Israel overlooking the Sorek valley.

What was Samson’s weakness in the comics?

But unlike the Hulk, Samson’s weakness was that all his powers came from his long hair, so should it ever be shaved, he would lose his strength. That weakness seems pretty easy for the bad guys to exploit should they find out about it.
