The above tradition is founded on Judges xiii. 25, in which it is said of Samson, "And the spirit of God began to move him at times in the camp of Dan, between Zoreah and Eshtaol,® in which the word " move,8 signifies also to " strike a stroke, ® " step a step, and *<mce.* Founding on which last two meanings, Rabbi Yehudah says, " Samson strode in one stride from Zoreah to Eshtaol,® a giant stride of two miles or more. Taking the word in the sense of " strike,® or " producing a ringing sound,® another Rabbi tells us that the hairs of Samson's head stood upright, tinkling one against another like bells, the jingle of which might be heard from Zoreah to Eshtaol. The version in the text takes the same word in the sense of to " strike together.®
