• Samuel proves himself faithful respecting this trust and, like Paul with the Ephesians later (Acts 20:20), he kept back from Eli nothing that was profitable to him. Poor Eli—set aside and obliged to receive God's thoughts from the mouth of a young boy! (““Meditations on Ruth and 1 Samuel”” by H.L. Rossier)
• God's will is good and his soul bows to it. May God grant us Eli's spirit in the presence of His discipline: the humility which precedes recovery, a broken heart which does not rise up against the will of God in an effort to resist it, but which accepts His will with all its consequences, because it is indeed "that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (““Meditations on Ruth and 1 Samuel”” by H.L. Rossier)
• Eli, judged for having loved his sons more than Jehovah, comforts our hearts nevertheless by his submission. If he failed in the energy of faithfulness, he was yet true in heart to Jehovah, and his personal piety is the more conspicuous in the devotedness to God’s glory which he manifests in these circumstances, finding his death in the Ichabod of His people. (“1 Samuel 3” by J.N. Darby)
• As for Eli, how comforting it is to see at our chapter's close, the humble submission of this aged man to the judgment which he had merited. (“1 Samuel 3” by H.L. Rossier)
