Samual como um menino pequeno e Eli. Samuel é mostrado se aproximando de Eli, segurando uma tigela grande. Estão a sorrir um para o outro. Eli é obviamente mais velho porque sua barba é branca.
11 Then Elkanah went home to Ramah. And the boy ministered to the LORD in the presence of Eli the priest.
1 Samuel 2
18 Samuel was ministering before the LORD, a boy clothed with a linen ephod.19 And his mother used to make for him a little robe and take it to him each year when she went up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.20 Then Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and say, “May the LORD give you children by this woman for the petition she asked of the LORD.” So then they would return to their home.21 Indeed the LORD visited Hannah, and she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters. And the young man Samuel grew in the presence of the LORD.
1 Samuel 3
1 Now the young man Samuel was ministering to the LORD under Eli. And the word of the LORD was rare in those days; there was no frequent vision.2 At that time Eli, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim so that he could not see, was lying down in his own place.
