Context — Hannah Prays for a Son
14and said to her, “How long will you be drunk? Put away your wine!”
15“No, my lord,” Hannah replied. “I am a woman troubled in spirit. I have not had any wine or strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the LORD.
16Do not take your servant for a wicked woman, for all this time I have been praying out of the depth of my anguish and grief.”
17“Go in peace,” Eli replied, “and may the God of Israel grant the petition you have asked of Him.” 18“May your maidservant find favor with you,” said Hannah. Then she went on her way, and she began to eat, and her face was no longer downcast.Cross References

1 Samuel 1:16 Summary
[This verse shows Hannah explaining to Eli that she is not drunk, but rather praying deeply out of her pain and sorrow. She is being honest with Eli and with God, and this is an example of how we can also be truthful and vulnerable in our prayers, as encouraged in Psalms 62:8. By pouring out our hearts to God, we can find comfort and peace, even in difficult times, as promised in Matthew 11:28-30. Hannah's example teaches us to trust God and to persevere in prayer, even when we face challenges or misunderstandings.]
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did Hannah feel the need to defend herself to Eli?
Hannah felt the need to defend herself because Eli had misunderstood her actions, thinking she was drunk, when in reality she was pouring out her heart to God in prayer, as seen in 1 Samuel 1:14-15. This highlights the importance of clear communication and not jumping to conclusions, as warned in Proverbs 18:13.
What does it mean to pray out of the depth of anguish and grief?
Praying out of the depth of anguish and grief, as Hannah did, means to pray with intense emotional honesty and vulnerability, as described in Psalms 42:1-2, where the psalmist pours out his soul to God. This kind of prayer is a cry from the heart, expressing deep pain and sorrow, and seeking comfort and solace from God.
How does Hannah's response to Eli reflect her character?
Hannah's response to Eli reflects her character as a woman of faith, humility, and integrity, as she calmly and respectfully corrects Eli's misconception, as seen in 1 Samuel 1:15-16. This demonstrates her trust in God and her commitment to righteous living, as encouraged in Romans 12:17-21.
What can we learn from Hannah's example in this verse?
We can learn from Hannah's example the importance of perseverance in prayer, even in the face of misunderstanding or discouragement, as seen in Luke 18:1-8, where Jesus teaches the parable of the persistent widow. We can also learn the value of humility and gentle speech, as Hannah responds to Eli with respect and dignity, as advised in Ephesians 4:29-32.
Reflection Questions
- What are some areas in my life where I am experiencing anguish and grief, and how can I bring these concerns to God in prayer?
- How do I respond when others misunderstand me or my actions, and what can I learn from Hannah's example in this situation?
- What does it mean to 'pour out my soul' to God, as Hannah did, and how can I cultivate this kind of vulnerability and honesty in my own prayer life?
- How can I, like Hannah, trust God to hear and answer my prayers, even when I don't see immediate results or understanding from those around me?
Gill's Exposition on 1 Samuel 1:16
Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial,.... A yokeless, a lawless, impudent, and abandoned creature; one of the most wicked, vilest, and most profligate wretches; as she must be to come
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Samuel 1:16
Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken. No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 1 Samuel 1:16
For a daughter of Belial; for such a wicked monster, as a drunken woman is. The oppression of my spirits hath forced me to speak, and that so liberally at this time, for the case of my sinking heart.
Trapp's Commentary on 1 Samuel 1:16
1 Samuel 1:16 Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken hitherto.Ver. 16. Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial.] That is, Of the devil, as all drunkards are confessedly. Behemoth lieth in the fens, which Gul. Parisiensis applieth to the devil dwelling in drunken hearts. See Luke 11:24. Oh that our carousers were persuaded, as Mohammed told his followers, that in every grape there dwelt a devil! For out of the abundance of my complaint and grief.] Not of wine, or any other inebriating liquor, whereof the Italians, besides wine, have many sorts: the most delicious they blasphemously call Lachrymae Christi. If Hannah were drunk at all, it was with her own tears, which she, poor soul, had drunk in great abundance.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 1 Samuel 1:16
Verse 16. Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial] אל תתן את אמתך לפני בת בליעל al titten eth amathecha liphney bath Beliyael; 'Put not thy handmaiden before the faces of a daughter of Belial." "If I am a drunkard, and strive by the most execrable hypocrisy (praying in the house of God) to cover my iniquity, then I am the chief of the daughters of Belial." Or, "Give not thy handmaid to reproach) before the faces of the daughters of Belial." Several of these probably attended there for the purposes of prostitution and gain; for it is said, 1 Samuel 2:22, that Eli's sons lay with the women at the door of the tabernacle, though this may refer to the women who kept the door.
Cambridge Bible on 1 Samuel 1:16
16. a daughter of Belial] Rather, a worthless, or, wicked woman. Our translators have wrongly treated this word as a proper name in the historical books, but not elsewhere, though the alternative is generally given in the margin. It means worthlessness, and according to the usual Hebrew idiom a son or daughter of worthlessness signifies “a worthless man or woman,” and with positively bad sense, a lawless, ungodly, wicked person. If “naughty,” by which the word is rendered in Proverbs 6:12, had retained its archaic sense, it would be a fair equivalent. “Belial,” or more correctly “Beliar,” is used by St Paul in 2 Corinthians 6:15 as a name of Satan, the personification of all lawlessness and worthlessness. Milton naturally follows the E. V. in regarding Belial as the name of a spirit. “Belial, than whom a spirit more lewdFeel not from heaven, … to him no temple stood,Or altar smoked, yet who more oft than heIn temples and at altars, when the priestTurns atheist, as did Eli’s sons, who filledWith lust and violence the house of God.”Paradise Lost, I. 490, ff.grief] Lit. “provocation” (cp. 1 Samuel 1:6), or “vexation” as the consequence of provocation.
Whedon's Commentary on 1 Samuel 1:16
16. A daughter of Belial — The Hebrew word áìéòì, beliyaal, rendered as a proper name here and frequently elsewhere in the Old Testament, means worthlessness, lowness.
