Lesson 270: Samuel Hears a Voice

Updated: Jan 14

I Sam. 3


Full Lesson HERE



INTRODUCTION. When Samuel was weaned, his mother Hannah took him to the tabernacle in Shiloh in fulfillment of her vow. She left Samuel there to minister in the service of the Lord with Eli who was the high priest and a descendant of Aaron.


Eli had two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, who were wicked. Although Eli reproved his sons for their sins, they did not listen to him. One day a man of God came to Eli and told him the Lord would judge his house (his family) because he did not discipline his sons. The Lord promised to remove Eli's family from the office of priesthood and give the priestly duties to another descendant of Aaron. As a sign to Eli that the prophecy was true, Eli's two sons would die the same day.


When Samuel was still a child, the Lord called him one night as he slept. The Lord

repeated to Samuel the message given to Eli regarding the judgment of his house.
