For a time, they captured the Ark of the Covenant (1 Samuel ch.4).
He beat the Philistines one time when was the king but he beat the philistines two times in King Saul's days. That makes it three times in his life.
Samson was betrayed to the Philistines by Delilah, a woman who had been bribed by them to discover the secret of his strength. She cut his hair, the source of his power, leading to his capture and eventual death.
The Philistines were a sea people who arrived in the Levant around 1250 BCE. They occupied the rich coastal plains and foothills from the Egyptian border north to approximately where Tel Aviv is today. Although The Bible refers to the Philistines in the time of the prophet Abraham, these accounts are not really true, because the Philistines did not arrive until centuries later. At the time the Bible was being written, the Hebrews thought that the Philistines had always been there.
The Ark of the Covenant was at Shiloh for an extended period, traditionally believed to be around 369 years, from its arrival during the time of Joshua until its capture by the Philistines. Shiloh served as a religious center for the Israelites, housing the Ark until its eventual relocation. After its capture, the Ark was not returned to Shiloh.
Samson lived in the latter part of the time of the judges. Samson was a judge. (not a judge like we have today, but a judge in that time period delivered Israel out of the hand of their enemies and brought them closer to God.) We are told in Judges 16:4b "....... that He (God) was seeking an occasion to move against the Philistines. For at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel". God raised up Samson to incite war against the Philistines. The Philistines had taken over parts of Israel and were treating the people very badly. God wanted this to stop. Samson was the first Judge to encounter the Philistines. It was not until the time of David that the Philistines were defeated badly enough to stop being a power against Israel. Samson's basic area of war against the Philistines was Zorah, which was in the territory of the Tribe of Dan. If you will recall it was David as a lad before he became King who took his sling and 5 smooth pebbles (Rocks) and put one between the eyes of Goliath who was a mercenary of the Philistines.
It was the Lord God of Israel who helped the Philistines when they attacked Judah. Judah was in Israel at that time, and when the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord and served other Gods, the Lord was angry against Israel and sold them into the hands of the Philistines. (Judges 10,6,7)
That is the correct spelling of the Biblical people, the Philistines.
