Young Samuel Bible Story
The Birth of Samuel Bible adventure
So glad you're here to share more Old Testament Bible stories. As you know, before we studied the Book of Ruth, we learned about when judges were the leaders in Israel. In the First Book of Samuel, you will learn how kings became the leaders in Israel.
Most of this book focuses on three main people: Samuel, the judge and Prophet; Saul, the first king of Israel, and David, the Lord's personal favorite king, who was anointed, but had not yet taken the throne, because Saul was still alive. There are of course, other stories to discover as well.
It's important to note that the books of First and Second Chronicles have many of the same stories as the books of Samuel and Kings plus some additional details that were omitted from Samuel and Kings, so Daily Bread has already done the leg work for you.
Samuel Bible Story Truth
The Birth of Samuel Prophecy
We have matched up the stories from Chronicles with the stories from Samuel and Kings and combined the information for you, just like we combined our studies of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John in the Daily Bread Gospels. We have indicated these "parallel" chapters at the beginning of each study, so without any further ado, let's get started, shall we?
There was a man named Elkanah, and he had two wives; Peninnah and Hannah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah did not, and every year Elkanah went to the house of the Lord in Shiloh to worship and sacrifice.
17
Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of
thy wine, or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy herds or of thy
flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy freewill
offerings, or heave offering of thine hand:
18
But thou must eat them before the Lord thy God in the place which
the Lord thy God shall choose, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter,
and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is
within thy gates: and thou shalt rejoice before the Lord thy God in
all that thou puttest thine hands unto.

The Birth of Samuel Blessing
Each year at this celebration, Peninnah would taunt Hannah, to make her cry because she was barren. It would make Hannah so sad that she wouldn't eat, so Elkanah said to her, Why are you so unhappy? Why do you cry and not eat? Am I not better to you than ten sons? And Elkanah gave portions (for feasting) to Peninnah and her children, but he gave more to Hannah because he loved Hannah, but the Lord kept her childless.
So after they had eaten and drank in Shiloh, Hanna went to pray at the Temple, and she made a vow to the Lord, that if He would allow her to have a baby boy, she would give him to the Lord all the days of his life and never cut his hair. As Hannah prayed, she was very sad and cried, and as she spoke in her heart, her lips moved, but her voice was silent.
There in the Temple, sitting by a pillar, was Eli, the high priest. Noticing that Hannah moved her lips as she prayed, Eli assumed that she was drunk. When he mentioned this observation to her, she told him that she had nothing to drink, but that she had a sorrowful spirit. Eli said, Go in peace, and my god answer your prayer.

The Birth of Samuel Bible Miracle
And God did indeed answer Hannah's prayer, and she had a son who was named Samuel. When he was weaned, they brought him to the Temple in Shiloh at the time of the yearly worship and sacrifice, and Hannah said to Eli, I am the woman who prayed to the Lord for this child, and He has answered my prayer.
I vowed that I would grant him to the Lord as long as he lives. And Hannah left Samuel under the care of Eli the priest, who raised him in ministering to the Lord in the Temple.
Samuel Bible Story Summary
The Birth of Samuel Bible Conclusion
This story may remind you a little of how Samson was conceived, because his mother was barren before that. Matter of fact, we've seen many times when the Lord has blessed women with children who were once barren. There was Sarah (Genesis 11:30, Genesis 21:2), Rebekah (Genesis 25:21), Rachel (Genesis 29:31, Genesis 30:22), Samson's mother (Judges 13:2-3), and now Hannah.
... with God all things are possible.
Hurry back, because we've got lots of interesting stories ahead in our new study of the First Book of Samuel, right here at Daily Bread.
There is a force out there that is attempting to overtake us all; it is Satan. There is another force that is protecting us from him; it is the Holy Spirit. It is a battle for souls. This battle is called Spiritual Warfare, and like it or not, you are right in the middle of it.
