1 Samuel 2:21 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 2:21

And the Lord visited Hannah
In a way of mercy, approving and confirming the blessing of Eli; or rather granting the blessing he prayed for, by giving her power to conceive, bear, and bring forth children, as the following words explain it:

so that she conceived and bare three sons and two daughters;
whereby the prophecy of Hannah was fulfilled, ( 1 Samuel 2:5 ) , and was no doubt matter of great joy to her, though of these children we nowhere else read, nor even of their names. Josephus F19 says, Elkanah had other sons by Hannah, and three daughters; which agrees not with the text:

and the child Samuel grew before the Lord:
in age and stature, in grace and goodness, and improved much in the worship and service of God, both in the theory and practice of it; or became great with him, high in his esteem and favour, and was blessed with much of his presence, and with large gifts of his grace.

1 Samuel 2:21 In-Context

19 Todos os anos sua mĂŁe fazia uma pequena tĂșnica e a levava para ele, quando subia a SilĂł com o marido para oferecer o sacrifĂ­cio anual.
20 Eli abençoava Elcana e sua mulher, dizendo: “O SENHOR dĂȘ a vocĂȘ filhos desta mulher no lugar daquele por quem ela pediu e dedicou ao SENHOR”. EntĂŁo voltavam para casa.
21 O SENHOR foi bondoso com Ana; ela engravidou e deu Ă  luz trĂȘs filhos e duas filhas. Enquanto isso, o menino Samuel crescia na presença do SENHOR.
22 Eli, jĂĄ bem idoso, ficou sabendo de tudo o que seus filhos faziam a todo o Israel e que eles se deitavam com as mulheres que serviam junto Ă  entrada da Tenda do Encontro.
23 Por isso lhes perguntou: “Por que vocĂȘs fazem estas coisas? De todo o povo ouço a respeito do mal que vocĂȘs fazem.
