Jayna mentioning a certain "thousand men" that was killed by Samson was a reference to the Philistines.[1]
The Philistines were an ancient race of Humans that were at war with the Israelites about ten hundred years before the 1st century.
They were well-known for worshipping Beelzebub, the Lord of the Flies.
One well-known Philistine was Goliath, who, according to the Books of Samuel; was killed by David.
History[]
Earth-1A[]
According to the Book of Judges, Samson used his super strength to beat one thousand Philistines to death with the jawbone of an ass.[2]
Zan once mentioned this when he and Jayna; who were being influenced mentally by the Overlord, that Seraph had strength much like Samson did.[3]
