Judges15:3
3 ¶ And Samson said concerning them, Now shall I be more blameless than the Philistines, though I do them a displeasure .
Because they have first provoked me by an irreparable injury: But although this may look like an act of private revenge; yet it is plain enough, that Samson acted as a judge (for so he was) and as an avenger of the publick Injuries and Oppressions of his People, as plainly appears from hence, that Samson designed this very thing before he had received any personal injury, Iudg. 14. 4.
Marginal references: Or, [illegible: 1 word] shall I be blameless. from the Philistines thirst.
