Setelah ia sampai ke Lehi dan orang-orang Filistin mendatangi dia dengan bersorak-sorak, maka berkuasalah Roh TUHAN atas dia dan tali-tali pada tangannya menjadi seperti batang rami yang telah habis dimakan api dan segala pengikatnya hancur tanggal dari tangannya.
Arakian, setelah sampai Simson di Lekhi, maka bersorak-sorak orang Filistin sambil mendapatkan dia; tetapi tiba-tiba datanglah Roh Tuhan atas Simson, maka segala tali yang pada lengannya itu menjadi seperti benang kapas yang dimakan api dan segala pengikatpun hancur, lucutlah dari pada tangannya.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when he came unto Lehi,.... The place which was afterwards so called, from what happened there at this time, and where the Philistines were spread, Judges 15:9 this, according to Bunting k, was six miles from Etam:
the Philistines shouted against him: for joy that they had got him into their hands, and in the circumstances he was, being bound, so that they had nothing to fear from him:
and the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him: as it at times did, and had done before; the Targum is,
"the Spirit of might from the Lord,''
which gave him courage and resolution of mind, and great strength of body, even while he was speaking, as a token of the wonders God more than he had at other times:
and the cords that were upon his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire; as easily parted as the flax when fire takes it, which is consumed at once:
and his bonds loosed off from his hands; by which it appears that both arms and hands were bound with the cords; his arms were pinioned close to his body, as well as his hands were tied together; and these, as in the original, "melted away" l, like wax before the fire, or snow before the sun, so easily were these bands separated from him; this may be an emblem of Christ's loosing himself from the cords of death, Acts 2:24.
k Travels, p. 116. l ימסו "diffuxerunt", Tigurine version; "liquefacta sunt", Piscator.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The cords ... became as flax ... - i. e. were as weak against his strength as half-burned flax which yields to the least pressure.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Judges 15:14. When he came unto Lehi — This was the name of the place to which they brought him, either to put him to death, or keep him in perpetual confinement.
Shouted against him — His capture was a matter of public rejoicing.
