What are the top 10 Lessons from 1 Samuel 1? (17) The God of Israel grant thee thy petition.--The character of Eli is a deeply interesting one. Weak and over-indulgent to his headstrong, wicked sons, probably too self-indulgent, and a lover of ease, yet in the brief record we possess we catch eight of not a few noble thoughts and wishes: flashes of true nobility, real generosity and self-forgetfulness, of intense, devoted patriotism, light up a life which closed in failure and disaster. Here the old man is quick to see that he had been insulting a blameless woman, so at once he retracts his cruel accusation, and silently accuses himself of precipitancy and injustice in his graceful, courteous words of farewell; adding too his fatherly wish, he almost promises that what she wished so ardently should be hers.Eli’s brief benediction turns Hannah’s sorrow into expectancy. “Go in peace” releases anxiety; “the God of Israel” grounds hope in covenant faithfulness; “grant the petition you have asked of Him” affirms that heartfelt, specific prayer reaches a willing, powerful Father. The verse teaches that God’s people can leave the place of prayer with calm confidence, trusting the Lord to answer according to His perfect compassion and power. Parallel Commentaries ...
