Every Nazarite in the Bible Explained: Their Vow, Their Calling, and Their Downfall

From the wilderness laws of Numbers to the temple's destruction in 70 AD, this is the complete story of every Nazarite in Scripture: Samson, Samuel, John the Baptist, and the forgotten ones history left behind. Who were the men and women who refused wine, never cut their hair, and carried the crown of God on their heads? What drove them, what broke them, and what happened when the altar where their vow ended was reduced to rubble?
