1 Samuel 1:17 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 1:17

Then Eli answered and said, go in peace
He found he was mistaken in her, and that her discourse was not only sober and rational, but religious and spiritual; and therefore dismisses her in peace, and bids her not distress herself with what he had said to her, nor with anything she had met with from others, or from the Lord; but expect peace and prosperity, and particularly success in what she had been engaged, and had been solicitous for:

and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition that thou hast asked of
him;
which may be considered either as a prayer for her, he joining with her in a request to the Lord, that what she had asked might be granted; or as a prophecy that so it would be, it being revealed to him by the Holy Ghost, as the high priest of the Lord; or impressed by an impulse upon his spirit that the favour asked would be given; and therefore she might go home in peace, and with satisfaction of mind.

1 Samuel 1:17 In-Context

15 Ana respondeu: “Não se trata disso, meu senhor. Sou uma mulher muito angustiada. Não bebi vinho nem bebida fermentada; eu estava derramando minha alma diante do SENHOR.

16 Não julgues tua serva uma mulher vadia; estou orando aqui até agora por causa de minha grande angústia e tristeza”.

17 Eli respondeu: “Vá em paz, e que o Deus de Israel conceda a você o que pediu”.

18 Ela disse: “Espero que sejas benevolente para com tua serva!” Então ela seguiu seu caminho, comeu, e seu rosto já não estava mais abatido.

19 Na manhã seguinte, eles se levantaram e adoraram o SENHOR; então voltaram para casa, em Ramá. Elcana teve relações com sua mulher Ana, e o SENHOR se lembrou dela.
