Commentary: Foxes, or jackals, are common and gregarious in that country. It is not hinted that Samson collected them alone; he might have employed several hands in this work. It is not said he collected them all in one day; he might have employed several days, as well as many persons, to furnish him with these means of vengeance.
the word שועלים shualim, here translated foxes, signifies also handfuls, Ezekiel 13:19, handfuls of barley; if we leave out that one letter ו vau, which has been inserted or omitted elsewhere, almost at pleasure. No less than seven Hebrew MSS. want that letter here, and read שעלים shealim . Admitting this version, we see that Samson took three hundred handfuls or sheaves of corn, and one hundred and fifty firebrands; that he turned the sheaves end to end, and put a firebrand between the two ends in the midst; and then, setting the brands on fire, sent the fire into the standing corn of the Philistines. The same word is now used twice in one chapter, ( Ezekiel 13:4, Ezekiel 13:19;); in the former verse signifying foxes, in the latter handfuls: and in 1 Kings 20:10, where we render it handfuls, it is αλωπεξι, foxes, in the Greek version."
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

Samson isn't the man, he don't hold a candle to Phil Brown or Ed Medvetz. Bonified!
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Numbers are hard work that's it, Come trappin where the numbers are few and meet some "Super Trappers" that pull down 50 where they are almost extinct now.
