1 Samuel 2:35
I will raise up for myself a faithful priest, who will do according to what is in my heart and mind. I will firmly establish his priestly house, and they will minister before my anointed one always.

Although this speaks of Samuel in the near future it is also a prophesy of the coming of Jesus and his new priesthood in which we all share. The doom of the brothers resulting from their sinfulness is a warning to us, but the prophecy is an encouragement for us as well. Hannah's song of praise also prefigures Mary's Magnificat at the coming of Jesus. Likewise with the sequence of events that happened with Samuel. All these insights are interesting, but above all they fill me with joy at the love, power and truth of the Lord. Praise and thank you Lord !
