 This grace goes so far as to give seven children to the barren woman—the perfect number, which Hannah never reached (1 Sam. 2:21), for she had only six children. The promised blessings will not reach their fullness until the glory that is in store for the restored remnant of Israel. (1 Samuel 2:1-11 by H.L. Rossier)
 The point here is his intimacy with God, without which service cannot be effective. (1 Samuel 2:12-36 by H.L. Rossier)
