1 Samuel 2:20
_ _ Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife — This blessing, like that which he had formerly pronounced, had a prophetic virtue; which, before long, appeared in the increase of Hannah’s family (1 Samuel 2:21), and the growing qualifications of Samuel for the service of the sanctuary. |
The natural place for this verse seems to be before the
1 Samuel 2:11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest.
, after which the
1 Samuel 2:21 And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.
should probably come in; and after the 21st, perhaps the
1 Samuel 2:26 And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.
should follow. |
