Judg. 15:8 in context
The whole interlinear chapter
Judg. 15:7      Judg. 15:9

Judges 15:8

And he struck them—thigh upon thigh, a great slaughter (he completely destroyed them). [The expression "thigh upon thigh" is probably a proverbial expression, similar to the English "to beat someone to a pulp."] Then he went down and lived in the cleft of the rock at Etam.
[There is a town near Bethlehem called Etam (2 Chron. 11:6), but it is too far east, and Samson is not in a town. The most common suggestion is Arak Ismain (an area with many caves) just outside Samson's hometown of Tsorah in Judah.]
