Le septième jour, avant que le soleil fût couché, les gens de la ville dirent à Samson: "Qu’y a-t-il de plus doux que le miel, et de plus fort que le lion?" A quoi il répondit: "Si vous n’aviez pas labouré avec ma génisse, vous n’auriez pas deviné mon énigme."

Similarly it says "If you had not plowed with my calf" (Shoftim 14, 18).8עגלה, “calf” is used in reference to a cherished wife just as a calf is cherished by it’s owner (See Sanhedrin 21a).

Elsewhere it is called Simnas-cheres25See Shoftim 2:9. because they erected a figure of the sun upon his grave,26See Shoftim 8:13 where חָרֶס refers to the sun. Also See Shoftim 14:18. to indicate that he is the one that caused the sun to stand still, and all who pass by it say, “Woe for the loss of this one, who did such a great thing and died.” Others say its actual name was Simnas-cheres, and why was it called Simnas- serach? because its fruit would rot because of their abundant richness.
