[Bibliadatum entry report]

Entry: Samuel (person-samuel)
Address: https://bibliadatum.org/en/wiki/person/samuel
Current wording: At 1 Samuel 1:19–20 Elkanah knows Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembers her; when the time had come, Hannah conceives, and bears a son; and she names him Samuel, saying, “Because I have asked him of the LORD.” At 1:24–28, when she has weaned him, she brings him to the LORD’s house in Shiloh and says to Eli, “Therefore I have also given him to the LORD. As long as he lives he is given to the LORD.” At 2:18 Samuel ministers before the LORD, being a child, clothed with a linen ephod, and at 2:26 the child Samuel grows on, and increases in favor both with the LORD and also with men. At 3:1–14 the LORD calls Samuel, who had laid down in the LORD’s temple, and speaks to him concerning the house of Eli; at 3:19–21 Samuel grows, and the LORD is with him and lets none of his words fall to the ground, all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knows that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD, and the LORD reveals himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the LORD’s word. 1 Samuel 4:1 says, “The word of Samuel came to all Israel”; at 7:3–6 Samuel said to all the house of Israel, “If you are returning to the LORD with all your heart, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtaroth from among you, and direct your hearts to the LORD, and serve him only,” and said, “Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD for you,” and he judged the children of Israel in Mizpah; at 7:9–12 Samuel took a suckling lamb, offered it for a whole burnt offering to the LORD and cried to the LORD for Israel, and the LORD answered him, and Samuel took a stone and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer; and 7:15–17 says that Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life, that he went from year to year in a circuit to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah, and judged Israel in all those places, and that his return was to Ramah, for his house was there. 1 Samuel 8:1–5 says that when Samuel was old, he made his sons judges over Israel, and that all the elders of Israel came to Samuel to Ramah and said, “Now make us a king to judge us like all the nations”; 8:22, that the LORD said to Samuel, “Listen to their voice, and make them a king”; 10:1, that Samuel took the vial of oil and poured it on Saul’s head; and 10:17–25, that Samuel called the people together to the LORD to Mizpah, that Saul the son of Kish was chosen, and that Samuel told the people the regulations of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book and laid it up before the LORD. 1 Samuel 11:14 has Samuel say to the people, “Come! Let’s go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there”; at 12:1–25 he tells all Israel to witness against him before the LORD and before his anointed, pleads with them concerning the righteous acts of the LORD, and calls to the LORD, and the LORD sends thunder and rain that day; and at 13:8–15, when Saul has waited seven days and offered the burnt offering, Samuel comes and says to Saul, “You have done foolishly,” and goes from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. At 1 Samuel 15:1–3 Samuel says to Saul, “The LORD sent me to anoint you to be king over his people, over Israel. Now therefore listen to the voice of the LORD’s words,” and tells him what the LORD of Armies says of Amalek; at 15:10–11 the LORD’s word comes to Samuel, and Samuel is angry and cries to the LORD all night; at 15:22 Samuel says, “Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams”; at 15:32–33 Samuel has Agag the king of the Amalekites brought to him and cuts Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal; and at 15:34–35 Samuel goes to Ramah, and comes no more to see Saul until the day of his death, but mourns for Saul. 1 Samuel 16:1–13 has the LORD say to Samuel, “Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have provided a king for myself among his sons”; Samuel does that which the LORD spoke and comes to Bethlehem, and when seven of Jesse’s sons have passed before him and the youngest is brought in, Samuel takes the horn of oil and anoints him in the middle of his brothers, and rises up and goes to Ramah. 1 Samuel 19:18 says that David fled and escaped, and came to Samuel at Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him, and that he and Samuel went and lived in Naioth; at 19:20 Saul’s messengers see the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them; and at 19:24 Saul prophesies before Samuel and lies down naked all that day and all that night. 1 Samuel 25:1 says that Samuel died, and all Israel gathered themselves together and mourned for him, and buried him at his house at Ramah. 1 Samuel 28:3 says, “Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had mourned for him and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city”; at 28:7–14 Saul says to a woman who has a familiar spirit at Endor, “Bring Samuel up for me,” the woman sees Samuel and cries with a loud voice, and Saul perceives that it was Samuel and bows with his face to the ground; and at 28:15–19 Samuel says to Saul, “Why have you disturbed me, to bring me up?” and “The LORD has done to you as he spoke by me. The LORD has torn the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbor, even to David.” At Acts 3:24 Peter says to the people in the porch called Solomon’s, “Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who followed after, as many as have spoken, also told of these days.” Acts 13:19–20 has Paul say in the synagogue at Antioch of Pisidia that when God had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave the people their land for an inheritance, and “after these things, he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.”
