Шаблон:Anchor God calls Samuel (3:1–14)

This section on Samuel's calling is often classified as a "prophetic call narrative", within the tradition of the calling of major prophets (cf. Exodus 3–4; Isaiah 6; Jeremiah 1:4–10; Ezekiel 1:1–3:16).Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn In a period when divine visions were infrequent, Samuel received his call-vision which would shift the seat of power from Eli and his family. While Eli was still presiding for a short period, he instructed Samuel of the right words of response to God's calling (verses 9–10), but after Samuel received God's oracle (verses 11–14), Samuel became more powerful than Eli before the eyes of the people.Шаблон:Sfn

Verse 1

Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the Lord before Eli. And the word of the Lord was rare in those days. There was no vision coming forth.[4]

Samuel's oracle of doom over Eli's house confirms the words of the man of God in 2:27-36: the house of Eli will fall because of the iniquity of his sons and his own inability to admonish them.Шаблон:Sfn Eli accepted God's verdict (verse 18) and that Samuel would become a 'powerful prophet whose words were fulfilled', not only in Shiloh, but throughout the land of Israel (verses 20–21).Шаблон:Sfn[8]

Verse 20

And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord.[9]
  • "From Dan even to Beer-sheba": a phrase regularly used to denote 'the whole land of Israel', first mentioned in Шаблон:Bibleverse, then becoming common in the books of Samuel and only appearing once more after the Division of the Kingdoms, that is, after the fall of the northern kingdom (Шаблон:Bibleverse).[10]
  • "Was established": can also be rendered as "was confirmed",[11] "found faithful" or "approved"; from Hebrew word that in 1 Samuel 2:35 is rendered as 'a faithful priest' and 'a sure house'.[10]
