Text event is a key practice in translation that helps deepen understanding of the books of the Bible in the historical narrative genre category. The text is the direct object of the narrative and events have meaning depending on the interpretation. The overall meaning in the narrative of the historical tale is not inherent in the event. In reality the memory of the event has different perspectives. The biblical authors were not neutral in how they portrayed a story, but they were partial in their reporting. The textual event, while sometimes confusing in its boundaries, can lead to a truly deeper and more meaningful understanding of the underlying plot, characters, and themes. It can be said that the textual event is an important method to implement to grasp the true relationship between what the author tries to say through the main character of the story. The situations the main character may find themselves in or how certain situational perspectives are highlighted; it might increase the importance of what the author is portraying. The textual event is important to implement when reading the Scriptures because it is essentially another stepping stone towards holistic understanding of the text. The story of Samson in Judges 16:15-35 is a great historical narrative example to use to apply the textual event. Judges is a book that shows the transition between the leadership of God's sovereignty and a divine monarchy. In this story Samson was born with the vow of Nazirite, no razor must touch his head because he is the chosen one of the Lord. The presence of the Lord dwells in Samson, but he takes this honor of being the Lord's chosen one for granted. The story I want to bring to light is that of Samson and Delilah. If the wrong hermeneutics were applied... half of the paper... text-event can be; laziness, unknown concept or disinterest. These reasons are frustrating for the faithful because they follow them accordingly. There is a great deal of trust that a lay member gives to the lead pastor. If they are not guided in the best way, then the pastor does a disservice, not only to himself, but to the body of Christ. Pastors must make every effort to strive for a deeper understanding of the Bible. If a pastor does not want to lead his congregation in the truest way possible, but instead does what he sees fit, he should not be a pastor. It is the pastor's job to recreate the event through the text to bring the assembly more deeply into understanding the divine word. When a pastor keeps it superficial or waters down the event through self-reflection, then the divinely inspired meaning of the text is lost.
