1 Samuel 2:28

28 Elegí a tu antepasado
Aarón de entre todas las tribus de Israel para que fuera mi sacerdote, ofreciera sacrificios sobre mi altar, quemara incienso y vistiera el chaleco sacerdotal,
cuando me servía. Y les asigné las ofrendas de los sacrificios a ustedes, los sacerdotes.

1 Samuel 2:28 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 2:28

And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my
priest
He did; of all the tribes of Israel the Lord chose the tribe of Levi to place the priesthood in, and of all the families of that tribe he chose the house of Aaron, Eli's ancestor, to minister in the priest's office, see ( Exodus 28:1 )

to offer upon mine altar;
burnt offerings, sin offerings, and peace offerings; this is the altar of burnt offering, which stood in the court of the tabernacle:

to burn incense;
on the altar of incense, which was in the holy place, and on which incense was burnt morning and evening:

to wear an ephod before me?
in which was the breastplate, with the Urim and Thummim, with which the high priest went into the most holy place, where was the ark, the symbol of the divine Presence, and where he inquired of the Lord by the above things:

and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by
fire of the children of Israel?
he did; the priests who were of the house of Aaron had not only the sin offerings, and part of the peace offerings, but even of the offerings made by fire, the burnt offerings; the skin of them was the priest's, and the meat offerings that went along with them, see ( Leviticus 6:25 Leviticus 6:26 ) and ( Leviticus 8:8-10 Leviticus 8:33-35 ) ( Numbers 18:8-10 ) which were given them for their maintenance. Now these instances of God's goodness to the family of Aaron are mentioned to aggravate the sins of Eli and his sons.

1 Samuel 2:28 In-Context

26 Mientras tanto, el niño Samuel crecía en estatura física y en el favor del Señor
y en el de toda la gente.

27 Advertencia para la familia de Elí
Cierto día un hombre de Dios vino a Elí y le dio el siguiente mensaje del Señor
: «Cuando el pueblo de Israel era esclavo en Egipto, yo me revelé
a tus antepasados.

28 Elegí a tu antepasado
Aarón de entre todas las tribus de Israel para que fuera mi sacerdote, ofreciera sacrificios sobre mi altar, quemara incienso y vistiera el chaleco sacerdotal,
cuando me servía. Y les asigné las ofrendas de los sacrificios a ustedes, los sacerdotes.

29 Entonces, ¿por qué menosprecian mis sacrificios y ofrendas? ¿Por qué les das más honor a tus hijos que a mí? ¡Pues tú y ellos han engordado con lo mejor de las ofrendas de mi pueblo Israel!

30 »Por lo tanto, el Señor
, Dios de Israel, dice: prometí que los de tu rama de la tribu de Leví
me servirían siempre como sacerdotes. Sin embargo, honraré a los que me honran y despreciaré a los que me menosprecian.
