サムエル記Ⅰ 1:14 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 1 Samuel 1:9-18

Elkanah had gently reproved Hannah for her inordinate grief, and here we find the good effect of the reproof. I. It brought her to her meat. She ate and drank, 1 Sam. 1:9. She did not harden herself in sorrow, nor grow sullen when she was reproved for it; but, when she perceived her husband uneasy that she did not come and eat with them, she cheered up her own spirits as well as she could, and came to table. It is as great a piece of self-denial to control our passions as it is to control our... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 1:14

And Eli said unto her, how long wilt thou be drunken ?.... What, every day drunk? what, continually in this wicked practice? when will it be stopped? for Eli might have observed on other days, and at other times, odd looks, and a strange behaviour in her, which he took for the effects of drinking too much wine: or how long will this drunken fit last? she had been a considerable time as he thought in it, and it was not gone off yet: the Targum is,"how long wilt thou behave like a fool, or a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Samuel 1:9-18

Trial sanctified. The main facts are— 1 . Hannah, impelled by trouble, goes to the sanctuary and records her wish in a vow. 2 . Eli misjudges her character, but hearkens to her self-defence. 3 . Eli discovers therefrom her real piety, and helps to create within her heart an assurance of answer to prayer. 4 . Hannah enters on a brighter path. I. IT BRINGS THE SOUL DIRECT TO GOD . It was doubtless good for Hannah to join the family worship, and derive all... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Samuel 1:9-18

Character misjudged. I. A RARE FORM OF WORSHIP . It was a rare thing for a solitary woman to be seen offering prayer without audible words and with a semblance of folly. The vicinity of the sanctuary was the scene of many strange and painful events in those days; but here was singularity combined with and expressive of the deepest piety. Prayer, though not in form of set phrase, is true worship when characterised by the features seen in that of the "sorrowful "woman: such as... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Samuel 1:12-18

She continued praying. Hannah's prayer was long and earnest, but in silence. She spake not in, but "to her heart," to herself. It was an inward supplication, which only her own heart and God heard. Eli watched, and was displeased. Possibly silent prayer was something unusual. It requires a certain advance in civilisation and refinement to enable a supplicant to separate the petition from the outward expression of it in spoken words, and a strong faith before any one can feel that God hears... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Samuel 1:13-18

Harsh judgment meekly answered. We hear much of the mothers of eminent men, and it is easy to see whence Samuel derived his elevation of mind, his religious temperament, and the natural aptitude to be a seer and prophet of God. It was from his mother—the sensitive, poetical, devout, unselfish Hannah. Her prayer at the house of the Lord in Shiloh shows her in a noble light. She asked for no vengeance on her adversary Peninnah, who had so often taunted her, but only for a son whom she might... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 1:1-28

1:1-7:17 ISRAEL UNDER ELI AND UNDER SAMUELBirth of Samuel (1:1-2:11)Elkanah was a Levite who lived in the tribal territory of Ephraim (1:1; 1 Chronicles 6:33-38). Each year he took his family to the town of Shiloh to offer sacrifices to the Lord. (Since the time of Joshua, Shiloh had been the central place of worship in Israel; Joshua 18:1,Joshua 18:10; Judges 18:31.) According to the regulations for certain sacrifices, the offerer, after offering his sacrifice, received back some of the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Samuel 1:1-28

1. Hannah’s deliverance ch. 1"1 Samuel 1 is presented as a conventional birth narrative which moves from barrenness to birth. Laid over that plot is a second rhetorical strategy which moves from complaint to thanksgiving. With the use of this second strategy, the birth narrative is transposed and becomes an intentional beginning point for the larger Samuel-Saul-David narrative. Hannah’s story begins in utter helplessness (silence); it anticipates Israel’s royal narrative which also begins in... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Samuel 1:9-18

Hannah’s lament and Eli’s response 1:9-18These verses provide some insight into the godly character of Samuel’s mother and her personal relationship with Yahweh. That she would offer her son to God’s service for life was similar to asking that God would lead your child into "the ministry." Asking that he would be a lifetime Nazirite was similar to asking that your child would dedicate himself completely to God, not just by profession but also by conviction. Hannah showed that she desired the... read more
