Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Samuel 2:32

_ _ thou shalt see an enemy in my habitation — A successful rival for the office of high priest shall rise out of another family (2 Samuel 15:35; 1 Chronicles 24:3; 1 Chronicles 29:22). But the marginal reading, “thou shalt see the affliction of the tabernacle,” seems to be a preferable translation.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Samuel 2:27-36.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Samuel 2:32

Shalt see, &c — The words may be rendered; thou shalt see, in thy own person, the affliction, or calamity of my habitation; that is, either of the land of Israel, wherein I dwell; or of the sanctuary, called the habitation by way of eminency, whose greatest glory the ark was, 1 Samuel 4:21-22, and consequently, whose greatest calamity the loss of the ark was; for, or instead of all that good wherewith God would have blessed Israel, having raised up a young prophet Samuel, and thereby given good grounds of hope that he intended to bless Israel, if thou and thy sons had not hindered it by your sins. So this clause of the threatning concerns Eli's person, as the following concerns his posterity. And this best agrees with the most proper signification of that phrase, Thou shalt see.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

1 Samuel 2:32

And thou (y) shalt see an enemy [in my] habitation, in all [the wealth] which [God] shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.

(y) Your posterity will see the glory of the chief priest given to another, whom they will envy, (1 Kings 2:27).
