Who had a miraculous well opened up for him after he workded up a thirst in battle?

(Joshua, Judges, 1 Kings)

Samson?

(Jdg 15:16 KJV)  And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men.

(Jdg 15:17 KJV)  And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramathlehi.

(Jdg 15:18 KJV)  And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said, Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?

(Jdg 15:19 KJV)  But God clave an hollow place that was in the jaw, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: wherefore he called the name thereof Enhakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day.

Enhakkore: does this mean or has the interpretation of "The spring of the caller"

A bit of a misleading question considering that it was not a well but rather a fountain that came out of the jaw bone itself.

Enhakkore basically means a fountain called forth.

Thanks for the info on the meaning of Enhakkore.
and yes the question was a bit misleading as to it being referred to a well, I located it by looking under Thrist in the back of my Bible.

What woman was, in Ezekiel, used as a symbol of wicked Samaria?

[David_james]

Oholah

Ezekiel 23:1-4

1 This message came to me from the Lord: 2 “Son of man, once there were two sisters who were daughters of the same mother. 3 They became prostitutes in Egypt. Even as young girls, they allowed themselves to be fondled and caressed. 4 The older girl was named Oholah, and her sister was Oholibah. I married them, and they bore me sons and daughters. I am speaking of Samaria and Jerusalem, for Oholah is Samaria and Oholibah is Jerusalem.

Thank you David!  Sorry I didn't get back here sooner to congradulate you.  I remember now you said you were going for the answer after lunch or something.  You did great!
Ready for the next one?
