Beginning of the End - Ellen G. White

Chapter 54
Samson, the Strongest Yet Weakest Man
This chapter is based on Judges 13 to 16.
Amid widespread apostasy, the faithful worshipers of God
continued to plead with Him deliver Israel. Though it seemed as if
there was no response, in the early years of the Philistine oppression
a child was born through whom God planned to humble the power
of these mighty enemies.
"The Angel of the Lord" appeared to the childless wife of
Manoah with the message that she would have a son through whom
God would begin to deliver Israel. The Angel gave her instructions
concerning her own habits and also how to treat her child: "Be
careful not to drink wine nor similar drink, and not to eat anything
unclean." The child was also forbidden to eat or drink these things.
The Angel further instructed that his hair should not be cut, for he
was to be consecrated to God as a Nazirite from his birth.
Importance of Prenatal Training
Afraid that they would make some mistake, the husband
prayed, "Let the Man of God whom You sent come to us again and
teach us what we shall do for the child who will be born."
