Samson demonstrated his superhuman strength by slaying a lion with his bare hands. He is depicted with foot in its back, grasping its jaws in his hands and forcing them apart. Combat with a single adversary was a subject that naturally tended to acquire a symbolic meaning. This instance was interpreted by the medieval Church as the struggle of Christ against the devil.
