Contextual Overview

⁹ Once, after they had eaten their meal in Shiloh, Hannah got up. Now Eli the priest was sitting on a chair near the entrance to the Lord 's house. ¹⁰ Hannah was so sad that she cried and prayed to the Lord . ¹¹ She made a promise, saying, " Lord All-Powerful, see how sad I am. Remember me and don't forget me. If you will give me a son, I will give him back to you all his life, and no one will ever cut his hair with a razor." ¹² While Hannah kept praying, Eli watched her mouth. ¹³ She was praying in her heart so her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Eli thought she was drunk ¹⁴ and said to her, "Stop getting drunk! Throw away your wine!" ¹⁵ Hannah answered, "No, sir, I have not drunk any wine or beer. I am a deeply troubled woman, and I was telling the Lord about all my problems. ¹⁶ Don't think I am an evil woman. I have been praying because I have many troubles and am very sad." ¹⁷ Eli answered, "Go! I wish you well. May the God of Israel give you what you asked of him." ¹⁸ Hannah said, "May I always please you." When she left and ate something, she was not sad anymore.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And she said, let thine handmaid find grace in thy sight,.... She had found favour in his sight she perceives, and she desires it might be continued and increased; and that as he had prayed for her, he would still use his interest at the throne of grace for her:

so the woman went her way; took her leave of Eli, and went from the tabernacle to her husband: and did eat; what remained of the peace offerings, which were to be eaten that night, and not left till the morning; and though she would not eat her dinner, her heart was so full of grief, yet she could now make a good supper, being eased and relieved in her mind:

and her countenance was no more sad; sorrowful and dejected, but cheerful, brisk, and lively; believing that her prayers, and those of the high priest, would be answered.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A beautiful example of the composing influence of prayer. Hannah had cast her burden upon the Lord, and so her own spirit was relieved of its load. She now returned to the family feast, and ate her portion with a cheerful heart. Acts 2:46-47.

The word “sad” is not in the Hebrew text, but it fairly supplies the meaning intended.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 1:18. Let thine handmaid find grace — Continue to think favourably of me, and to pray for me.
