Riddles are used in the Bible to convey deeper truths, challenge the listener, or reveal wisdom. They often serve as a test of intelligence or insight, and their solutions can lead to greater understanding or revelation. Samson's Riddle One of the most famous riddles in the Bible is found in the account of Samson, a judge of Israel, in the Book of Judges. During his wedding feast, Samson posed a riddle to his Philistine guests: "Out of the eater came something to eat, and out of the strong came something sweet" (<a href="/judges/14-14.htm">Judges 14:14</a>). This riddle was based on an earlier event where Samson had killed a lion and later found bees and honey in its carcass. The Philistines were unable to solve the riddle until they coerced Samson's wife into revealing the answer. This incident led to a series of events that furthered the conflict between Samson and the Philistines. Purpose and Significance Riddles in the Bible often serve multiple purposes. They can be a form of entertainment, a test of wisdom, or a means to convey spiritual truths. In the case of Samson, the riddle was a demonstration of his cleverness and a challenge to his enemies. However, it also foreshadowed the ongoing struggle between Israel and the Philistines, highlighting the tension and conflict that characterized Samson's life and mission. Wisdom Literature Riddles are also associated with wisdom literature in the Bible, particularly in the Book of Proverbs. While not always explicitly labeled as riddles, many proverbs contain enigmatic sayings that require contemplation and insight to understand. These sayings are designed to impart wisdom and encourage the reader to seek deeper understanding. For example, <a href="/proverbs/1-6.htm">Proverbs 1:6</a> speaks of understanding "a proverb and a parable, the words of the wise and their riddles" , indicating that riddles are a component of the wisdom tradition in Scripture. Prophetic and Apocalyptic Contexts In prophetic and apocalyptic literature, riddles can take the form of symbolic visions or cryptic messages that require interpretation. The Book of Daniel, for instance, contains visions and dreams that are riddles in need of divine interpretation. Daniel's ability to interpret these riddles is a testament to his God-given wisdom and insight. Similarly, the Book of Revelation is filled with symbolic language and imagery that can be seen as riddles, challenging the reader to discern their meaning in the context of God's ultimate plan for humanity. Jesus and Parables While not riddles in the traditional sense, Jesus' use of parables in the New Testament can be seen as a form of enigmatic teaching. Parables often contain hidden meanings that require spiritual insight to understand. Jesus used parables to reveal truths about the Kingdom of God, often leaving his listeners to ponder their meaning. In this way, parables function similarly to riddles, inviting the listener to seek deeper understanding and reflection. Conclusion Riddles in the Bible serve as a tool for teaching, testing, and revealing deeper truths. Whether in the form of Samson's challenge, the wisdom of Proverbs, or the symbolic language of prophecy, riddles invite believers to engage with Scripture thoughtfully and seek the wisdom that comes from God.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>RiddleIt is known that all ancient nations, and especially Orientals, were fond of riddles. The riddles which the queen of Sheba came to ask of Solomon, (<a href="/1_kings/10-1.htm">1 Kings 10:1</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/9-1.htm">2 Chronicles 9:1</a>) were rather "hard questions" referring to profound inquiries. Solomon is said, however, to have been very fond of riddles. Riddles were generally proposed in verse, like the celebrated riddle of Samson. (<a href="/judges/14-14.htm">Judges 14:14-19</a>)<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>(Hebrews hodah). The oldest and, strictly speaking, the only example of a riddle was that propounded by Samson (<a href="/judges/14-12.htm">Judges 14:12</a>-18). The parabolic prophecy in <a href="/ezekiel/17-2.htm">Ezek. 17:2</a>-18 is there called a "riddle." It was rather, however, an allegory. The word "darkly" in <a href="/1_corinthians/13-12.htm">1 Corinthians 13:12</a> is the rendering of the Greek enigma; marg., "in a riddle." <a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1. (n.) A sieve with coarse meshes, usually of wire, for separating coarser materials from finer, as chaff from grain, cinders from ashes, or gravel from sand.2. (n.) A board having a row of pins, set zigzag, between which wire is drawn to straighten it.3. (v. t.) To separate, as grain from the chaff, with a riddle; to pass through a riddle; as, riddle wheat; to riddle coal or gravel.4. (v. t.) To perforate so as to make like a riddle; to make many holes in; as, a house riddled with shot.5. (n.) Something proposed to be solved by guessing or conjecture; a puzzling question; an ambiguous proposition; an enigma; hence, anything ambiguous or puzzling.6. (v. t.)
