1 Samuel 8:3

Listen to 1 Samuel 8:3
3 Mas no anduvieron sus hijos por los caminos de su padre, antes se recostaron tras la avaricia, recibiendo soborno y pervirtiendo el derecho

1 Samuel 8:3 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 8:3

And his sons walked not in his ways
The meaning of which is not that they did not go the circuit he did, which is too low a sense of the words some Jewish writers give; but they did not walk in the fear of God, in the paths of religion and righteousness, truth and holiness; they neither served God, nor did justice to men, as Samuel had done:

but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment;
indulged to covetousness, sought to get riches at any rate, took bribes, which blind the eyes of judges; and so passed wrong judgment, and gave the cause to those that gave the largest gifts, right or wrong.

1 Samuel 8:3 In-Context

1 Y aconteció que cuando Samuel se hizo viejo, puso a sus hijos por jueces sobre Israel
2 Y el nombre de su hijo primogénito fue Joel, y el nombre del segundo, Abías; los cuales fueron jueces en Beerseba
3 Mas no anduvieron sus hijos por los caminos de su padre, antes se recostaron tras la avaricia, recibiendo soborno y pervirtiendo el derecho
4 Entonces todos los ancianos de Israel se juntaron, y vinieron a Samuel en Ramá
5 y le dijeron: He aquí tú has envejecido, y tus hijos no van por tus caminos; por tanto, constitúyenos ahora un rey que nos juzgue, como tienen todos los gentiles
