1 Samuel 2:34 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 2:34

32 And you will see an enemy in My dwelling place, despite all the good which God does for Israel. And there shall not be ^aan old man in your house forever.

33 But any of your men whom I do not cut off from My altar shall consume your eyes and grieve your heart. And all the descendants of your house shall die in the flower of their age.

34 Now this shall be ^aa sign to you that will come upon your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: ^bin one day they shall die, both of them.

35 Then ^aI will raise up for Myself a faithful priest who shall do according to what is in My heart and in My mind. ^bI will build him a sure house, and he shall walk before ^cMy anointed forever.

36 ^aAnd it shall come to pass that everyone who is left in your house will come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and say, “Please,¹ put me in one of the priestly positions, that I may eat a piece of bread.” ’ ”
