1 Samuel Study - Week 3

Bible Reading for this week: 1 Samuel 3:1 - 4:22

Questions for this week:
  • To "know" someone in Hebrew signified intimate, direct relationship. In what sense did Samuel "know" the Lord after his call in a way he didn't before it? (3:7)
  • How can we show ourselves to be as ready as Samuel was to receive God's word?
  • In the Christian life, does unfaithfulness to God always, sometimes or never lead to visible problems? What is your experience?
  • The birth of a child is normally a joyous occasion. How do the births of Samuel and of Eli's grandson compare in this respect and why?
  • What one truth from this reading would you like to take to heart and apply?
  • Don't forget to pick your verse of the week
