Sorec may have been inhabited by the latter; and although it is not stated to which people Delilah belonged, the story told in this sixteenth chapter of Judges of her relations with the princes of the Philistines, makes it vary unlikely that she was an Israelite.

 Have Lamb Will Martyr   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
This was followed by Delilah who directly addressed him as "majesty" (which itself had a royal resonance), and then later as "lord Saran" (twice).
In due course, she cried out "majesty" (twice) to get the Saran's attention and then described him as "a king, a conqueror" and "great king" (twice) to reinforce his royalty, his inherent ruler duty and his apparent success at it (alternatively, it was just flattery).
For example, in her rustic kitchen, Samson's mother complained to him saying: "you were brawling through the streets of Timnath with the Philistines," and then again on the lion hunt when the Saran called him a "brawling troublemaker," which Samson cheekily accepted as a badge of honour.
