Shimshon ben Manoach from the tribe of Dan [(his mother was Tzelelpunit, year 21:1)] from the seed of Yehudah [(Midrash Rabbah Nasso chapter 10)], receiving from 12 from Sinai, judged for 20 years [(and in Sotah 10a)] Shimshon said: 'For twenty-two years I judged Israel and I did not say to them: Transfer a staff for me,' see there what the Chadashei HaDash wrote...

Shimshon [was the reincarnation of Shem, a spark from Esav (Likutei Mahara"sh Megillah 8), and the reincarnation of Nadav ben Aharon who did not want to take a wife, therefore it was done that he ground in the house of the women of the Philistines (Chesed L'Avraham, Ma'ayan 5, River 25).

Therefore 'and he sent forth the Son of Dan' - this is Shimshon, whose letters spell Nadav (Sefer Kavanot)...]

Tzelalponit [was the wife of On ben Pelet, and she saved her husband, therefore she saw the angel because she saved him - and he was Manoach, and On (Bereishit Nezer). See Year 3449 and Year 3492. Tzelalponit's mother was Tzila, wife of Lemech, and Chana was the wife of Elkana (Bereishit Nezer) (see Year 364 and Year 3480)].

At the time when Shimshon died, Buzi ben Buki of the seed of Elazar died, and the priesthood was transferred to the seed of Itamar. Eli was the first and Evyatar was the last. And in the days of Shlomo, the priesthood returned to Tzadok of the seed of Elazar [(Yuchsin, Discourse 5, Time 2). See Year 2917].

Michayahu [who made the idol (Shoftim 17), according to some opinions, it was at this time (see Year 2917)].
