Who comes out of the vineyards. Returning some time after, in the dried skeleton, he finds a swarm of bees and their honey. He eats, and gives to his parents. He marries the woman, and holds high festival — as is usual even now — for seven days. Amongst the other amuse- ments, Samson propounds a riddle. Here again is a pure touch of Eastern manners. He pro- mises to give to each of the thirty friends who are feastinsf with him a ' tunic ' and a ' chanq-e garment. ' These change garments were co...stly. The guests fail to find out the riddle. His wife, with tears, beseeches him to tell her the secret, and immediately she tells her friends. Samson is angry, and to provide the apparel he has promised goes down to Ashkelon — one of the towns belong- ing to the Philistines — slays thirty men, and gives their garments to those who had declared the riddle. Ashkelon, one of the five Philistine royal cities, is on the coast of the Mediterranean. The old city is buried in sand-dunes. There is, however, still a city of 'Askalan.
