In the Bible Eve was created from one of Adam’s rib. God told Adam and Eve not to eat fruit from the Garden of Eden, but Eve, tempted by the Devil, disobeyed God’s order and ate the fruit. God condemned man to live a life of hard labor and gave women the punishment of painful childbirth.

Samson a biblical figure who was destined to save the Israelites from oppression. He was ordered not to cut his hair because it was the source of his strength. He eventually falls in love with a woman named Delilah who chops his hair off. Samson was eventually blinded and imprisoned.

It creates a bit of a vibrant image when you consider that weed is illegal and alcohol is legal in today’s American society.
