Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Samuel 2:1-10

1 Samuel 2:1-2 Samuel : . Song of Hannah.— This poem is quite unsuited to Hannah’ s circumstances; its theology is too advanced for primitive times ( 1 Samuel 2:2; 1 Samuel 2:6; 1 Samuel 2:8), and the reference to the “ king” ( 1 Samuel 2:10) either implies an actual king and indicates the period of the Monarchy, or is Messianic, i.e. connected with the hope of an ideal king, and implies a post-exilic date. The natural occasion of the poem would be a victory which delivered Israel from... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - 1 Samuel 2:5

Have hired themselves out for bread, through extreme necessity, into which they are fallen from their greatest plenty. It is the same thing which is expressed both in divers metaphors in the foregoing and following verses, and properly in the latter branch of this verse. Ceased, i.e. ceased to be such, to wit, hungry; the hungry failed; there was none of them hungry or indigent. Seven, i.e. many, as seven is oft used. She speaks in the prophetic style, the past time for the future; for though... read more

CRITICAL AND EXPOSITORY NOTES—1 Samuel 2:1. “And Hannah prayed.” “Hymns are wont to be comprehended under the name of prayers” (Psalms 71:20). “It was the most ancient way of preserving the memory of things to posterity, poets being more ancient than historians or orators.” (Patrick.) “Mine Horn.” “There is no reason for supposing here a reference to the custom among Oriental women (Druses and others) of wearing silver horns on the head to which the veil is attached, and which, by their... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 2:1-36

1 Samuel 1-4 (with Judges 21:16-25 ) I. With all his virtues and natural advantages Eli had one great fault. He was a good man of the easy type; the kind of man who makes an admirable servant, who does his duty to perfection so long as his duty merely troubles himself, but who has not force of character to interfere with others; to command, to regulate the conduct of others, to incur the ill-will of others. An amiable indolence overspread his whole nature. He was one of the men who have... read more

DISCOURSE: 282HANNAH’S SONG OF THANKSGIVING1 Samuel 2:1-10. And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the Lord, mine horn is exalted in the Lord; my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation. There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God. Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed. The bows of the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 2:1-36

This book presents the history, the personal history of Samuel who was the last of the Judges. It ushers in the beginning of the period of the kings in the children of Israel, or among the children of Israel.There's a certain man of Ramathaimzophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah. He had two wives; one was Hannah, the other Peninnah: Peninnah had children, Hannah had no children. This man went out of the city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the Lord of hosts in Shiloh.... read more

1 Samuel 2:1 . Hannah said, my heart rejoiceth. This song is much admired: the lines form a constellation of appropriate beauties. The composition is perfect in its kind. The phrases are short, and the sentiments brilliant. The soul of the poetess was full of her subject. 1 Samuel 2:12 . Sons of Belial, as in Deuteronomy 13:13.

The Biblical Illustrator - 1 Samuel 2:1-10

1 Samuel 2:1-10And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the Lord. Hannah’s songModern criticism has decided, to its own satisfaction, that the noble hymn here attributed to Hannah, cannot possibly have been uttered by her lips as a thanksgiving for the birth of Samuel. It breaks the obvious connexion of the narrative: its real theme is the rout of the nation’s enemies, and the triumph of the national armies: above all, the concluding words, which speak of Jehovah’s King, and pray that... read more
