Gill's Notes on the Bible

And all Israel, from Dan even unto Beersheba,.... That is, from the most northern border of the land of Israel, on which Dan lay, to the utmost border of it southward, where Beersheba was, the fame of Samuel for his piety, prudence, and prophecy, was spread abroad; so that all

knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord; or that he was faithful z to God and man, to be credited in what he said; and so a fit man to be a prophet of the Lord, being eminently qualified with gifts by him for that office; the Targum is,

"that Samuel was faithful in the words of the prophecy of the Lord,''

in relating them.

z נאמן "fidelis", V. L. Pagninus, Montanus, Tigurine version.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

From Dan ... - See Judges 20:1 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 3:20. All Israel from Dan even to Beer-sheba — Through the whole extent of Palestine; Dan being at the northern, Beer-sheba at the southern extremity.

Was established to be a prophet — The word נאמן neeman, which we translate established, signifies faithful: The faithful Samuel was a prophet of the Lord.
