Judges 15:6

And the Philistines said, "Who has done this?" And they said, "Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he took his wife and gave her to his best man (Hebr. merea) [who was responsible for the wedding]."
So the Philistines came up and burned her and her father in the fire. [What the 30 Philistine wedding guests threatened to do to Samson's wife if she did not give them the answer to the riddle now happens anyway because her father did not respect that she was Samson's wife, see Judg. 14:15.]
