The book begins in the time period of Eli the high priest, who was also a judge. Eli was blind to the corrupt actions of his sons (sound familiar?). The era of judges is not over yet, but the pendulum is about to swing back. That pendulum manifests in a young woman named Hannah. Every year, Hannah and her husband and her co-wife go up to the Mishkan to bring sacrifices. Hannah is barren but is the favored wife (sound familiar?). Her husband tries to calm Hannah by professing his love for her, but she really wants a child (sound familiar?).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So she goes to the Mishkan and prays with all her heart for a child. Eli sees her moving her lips and thinks she is a drunkard. She tells him that she was simply praying for a child and if she gets a child, she will give him over to God (sound familiar?) by bringing him to the Mishkan to serve God. If this story sounds a little familiar, that is intentional.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the background, we have the story of Eli and his corrupt children. That is the Judges thread. In the middle, there is one piece of the story that overlaps, that is Hannah\u2019s promise to dedicate her unborn child to God. This dedication has hints of Samson as a <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nazir<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but also Jephthah\u2019s promise to dedicate the first thing that comes through his door. Unlike Jephthah, Hannah is much more careful with her words and dedicates her son to the service of God. This dedication also matches Abraham. But Hannah does not sacrifice her child.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the foreground we have a story that is a throwback to Genesis. The story of Hannah sounds very much like the stories of the foremothers: Sarah, Rebecca and Rachel: barren women who want nothing more than to have a child. Hannah\u2019s story is very close to Rachel\u2019s story of being the barren, yet most loved, of multiple wives. Hannah is not only connected to the foremothers; she is also connected to the forefathers. The Talmud in Berachot explains that the forefathers originated the idea of prayer. Abraham taught us <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shacharit<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the morning prayer, Isaac <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">minchah<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the afternoon service, and Jacob, <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ma\u2019ariv<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the evening prayer. Each one had a verse that could be interpreted as a time of prayer. The forefathers may have taught us <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>when<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to pray. But it is Hannah, however, who taught us <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>how<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to pray. Hannah is the paradigm of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>kavanah<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(intent) during prayer. This story mimics Genesis to suggest that the book of Samuel is a new beginning for the Israelites.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":60597,"alt":"","title":"2sam14-the-beginning-note","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","width":354,"height":373,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note-285x300.jpg","medium-width":285,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","medium_large-width":354,"medium_large-height":373,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","large-width":354,"large-height":373,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","1536x1536-width":354,"1536x1536-height":373,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","2048x2048-width":354,"2048x2048-height":373,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","post_full_size-width":354,"post_full_size-height":373,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","home_baner-width":354,"home_baner-height":373}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"The Sea Change Of Samuel","tile_main_caption_size":"1","tile_sub_caption":"This story mimics Genesis to suggest that it is a new beginning for the people","tile_preview_embedded":"","tile_preview_image":{"id":60597,"alt":"","title":"2sam14-the-beginning-note","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","width":354,"height":373,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note-285x300.jpg","medium-width":285,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","medium_large-width":354,"medium_large-height":373,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","large-width":354,"large-height":373,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","1536x1536-width":354,"1536x1536-height":373,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","2048x2048-width":354,"2048x2048-height":373,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","post_full_size-width":354,"post_full_size-height":373,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/2sam14-the-beginning-note.jpg","home_baner-width":354,"home_baner-height":373}},"tile_preview_video":"","tile_external_link":"","tile_link_for_pay":"0","tile_tile_gallery_items":"","tile_credits":"","alternate_tile_top_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption_size":"1","alternate_tile_sub_caption":"","alternate_tile_hide_media":"0","tile_group_preview_image_url":"","tile_group_main_caption":"","tile_group_sub_caption":"","tile_group_popup_package_extra_content":"","tile_group_read_time":"","home_color":"","home_gallery_top":"","home_gallery_middle":"","home_gallery_book":"","home_gallery_bottom":"","seo_seo_title":"","seo_seo_description":"","seo_seo_default_title":"","seo_seo_default_description":"","links":false,"send_noty":false,"chapter_info":{"books_group":"Prophets","book":"I Samuel","chapter":"1","chapter_main_number":"233","date":"20260721","wall_id":"233"},"link_for_pay":false,"tags":[{"term_id":"575","name":"Interpretation","old_id":"975"},{"term_id":"721","name":"Text","old_id":"1121"},{"term_id":"839","name":"Samuel","old_id":"1239"},{"term_id":"881","name":"Genesis","old_id":"1281"}]},{"order":3,"id":"110581","color":"#f6edf6","size":"1","name":"Slouching Toward Monarchy  ","post_title":"Slouching Toward Monarchy","slug":"slouching-toward-monarchy","old_id":"110581","type":"no","iframe":"","writer":{"id":101758,"post_title":"Naomi Bromberg Bar-Yam","slug":"naomi-bromberg-bar-yam","old_id":"101758","first_name":"Naomi ","last_name":"Bromberg Bar-Yam ","description":"Naomi Bromberg Bar-Yam is a social worker and advocate in maternal and child health.

Their similar, though not identical, origin stories suggest some of the strengths and pitfalls of monarchy.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In both stories, the mothers, unnamed <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Eshet<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monoah (wife of Manoah) and Hannah, take center stage; the fathers, Manoah and Elkanah, play supporting and supportive roles.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Eshet<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manoah and Hannah were infertile and, in both cases, God intervened to bring them children, sons. Like her ancestor Sarah, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Eshet<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manoah did not complain or worry about her infertility, nor do we have any record that she prayed for a child. God sent a messenger to tell her that she and Manoah would have a child (Judges 13:3). On the other hand, Hannah was desperate (1 Samuel 1:4-8) and prayed fervently for a child (1 Samuel 1:10)<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both Samson and Samuel were designated as Nazirites before their birth. For Samson, this was commanded by God and began before he was even conceived (Judges 13:7). In her prayer, Hannah promised to God that, if she gave birth to a son, he would be dedicated to God, beginning with being a Nazirite (1 Samuel 1:11).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Judaism, being a Nazirite is a time limited oath made by an individual. It is outwardly manifest by not cutting hair, not drinking wine, and otherwise scrupulously observing laws of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>tum\u2019ah<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>tahara<\/em> <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(ritual uncleanness and purity). The rituals for entering and exiting this state are clear in the text and complex.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Samson and Samuel, serving God, manifested in being Nazirites, was not their choice. Rather, it was decided for them by God and by their mothers. They grew up knowing that they were designated for special service to God and their people. Samson and Samuel are the only two lifelong Nazirites in the Bible and would have been very noticeable: imagine a life of never having a haircut or beard trim.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the nation moved toward monarchy, perhaps these two leaders gave the nation a taste of what monarchy will be. As with Samson and Samuel, kings are designated before birth, and are raised with the knowledge that their role is special, serving God and their people, and with unique privileges and responsibilities.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Samson and Samuel are two very different examples of how such leadership can be, how different kings can be; ways in which they can abuse their unique privilege and power, or use it to rule and serve the people justly and with care.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The kings to come will follow similar patterns, designated before birth, some leading with dedication and justice, others abusing their power and bringing the people down with them.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Tanakh has an ambivalent relationship to monarchy.

We have not joined this worthwhile search for precursors of modern moral ideas in the political culture of an ancient kingdom. We have chosen instead to concentrate on the fine-grained phenomenology of political power so astutely elaborated by our anonymous author. What makes the book so alive to the touch even today are not its normative teachings, if any, but rather its analysis of political power, an analysis that we believe to apply not only here and now but whenever and wherever structures of power exist.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such a rich and subtle grasp of politics finds few antecedents in the literature of the ancient Near East or in biblical literature prior to the Book of Samuel. Unlike other dimensions of biblical religion, the book\u2019s relentlessly observant and critical gaze into the dynamics of power was neither an elaboration on, nor a repudiation of, themes and concerns present in the myths and narrative of Israel\u2019s neighbors. In the Book of Samuel we hear a fresh and original voice. It is not merely the earliest extant document of its kind, but arguably the earliest ever written, and one that exhibits a startling maturity of insight. When first encountering its prescient grasp of political reality, one immediately realizes that the stories the text graphically recounts are anything but tentative steps in an inchoate thought process awaiting a more sophisticated elaboration and refinement. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather, the book\u2019s insights into the dynamics of power contested, gained, abused, and lost possess that rare clarity, completeness, and depth that can probably be achieved only at a moment of origin, that is, only when a new reality bursts forth in a way that cannot be repeated.

Misunderstood by her husband, tortured by her sister-wife, she leaves a festive family meal to spill out her heart to God in the Tabernacle, begging for the child she has been desiring for so long. The heartfelt nature of her prayer is expressed in the unique phrasing \u201c<\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">v\u2019chana hi medaberet al liba<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d, \u201cAnd Hannah was speaking in her heart\u201d, or, more literally of or over her heart. The Talmud in Berachot 31b understands this phrase to be specifically relevant to her request, and explains that she spoke \u201cconcerning matters of the heart,\u201d asking God, \u00a0\u201cWhy have you given me breasts over my heart and no child to nurse?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hannah\u2019s prayer is spontaneous, anguished, and deeply feminine. And yet, Rav Himnuna in the Talmud (Brachot 31a) derives many of the laws of the daily <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">amida<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the centerpiece of ritualized daily prayer, from Hannah, including the requirement to focus on the words of the prayer, and to shape the words with one\u2019s lips without raising one\u2019s voice. (For more on this topic, see<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.deracheha.org\/prayer-1-obligation\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.deracheha.org\/prayer-1-obligation\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hannah and her prayer are a surprising choice. Why would she, of all people, be the rabbinic role model for ritualized prayer? And how could her spontaneous pleas be the model for an unchanging script recited at regular times each day?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My question about choosing Hannah stems from a mistaken assumption that ritualized prayer is inherently male, an easy mistake to make for anyone who has grown up in the Orthodox world. When boys are encouraged to attend prayer services and girls are not, and when young women are discouraged by synagogues inhospitable to female prayer, it\u2019s a short jump to assuming that prayer exists exclusively in the male realm. But it\u2019s clear that the rabbis of the Talmud didn\u2019t think that way. In fact they explicitly teach in Berachot 20a \u201c[Women] are obligated in prayer, for it [prayer] is seeking mercy.\u201d Every person, no matter what gender, needs divine mercy.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thinking about mercy, and outside of the male-box, takes us one step further. Hannah is the perfect example of someone who recognizes that her problems can be solved only with God\u2019s help, and so earnestly turns to Him in prayer for mercy. That\u2019s not ideal feminine behavior, that\u2019s ideal human behavior! <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, there are set texts and times for prayer, but that is only a starting point. Daily prayer should be treated not just as an obligation but as an opportunity to approach God in a request for whatever we need most. Our goal should be to take inspiration from Hannah\u2019s prayer, and incorporate those personal, deeply felt desires and emotions into our daily conversations with God. We appeal to God\u2019s mercy, and hope to be as worthy of it as Hannah was.<\/span><\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":56724,"alt":"","title":"isam1-hands","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands.jpg","width":1920,"height":1280,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands-300x200.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands-1024x683.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":683,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands.jpg","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1280,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands-1200x800.jpg","post_full_size-width":1200,"post_full_size-height":800,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-hands-630x420.jpg","home_baner-width":630,"home_baner-height":420}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"Prayer

For example, note that Hannah\u2019s name appears 11 times in ch. 1, far more than that of other characters. True, the chapter begins with a focus on Elkanah (v. 1), but the astute reader soon realizes that that is but a false lead. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, note that Hannah is the only character in ch. 1 to participate in each of the ten instances of recorded speech. \u00a0Six times she is the speaker, while four times she is addressed. By contrast, Eli is involved in only half as many speech acts (speaking twice, addressed thrice); while Elkanah is involved in only three (speaking twice, addressed once). I am grateful to Carol Meyers (Duke University) for these two keen observations.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As an additional indication of how the story revolves around Hannah, note the narrowing of the focus in the plot development: \u00a0from the annual pilgrimage (v. 3) to the day of the sacrifice (v. 4a) to the giving of portions (v. 4b) to Hannah\u2019s portion specifically (v. 5). \u00a0From this point onward, through the end of the chapter, Hannah will be the primary character. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In classic biblical style, the hope of Israel is not with the powerful, the priest Eli or the <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">paterfamilias<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Elkanah, but rather with the lowly, in this case the barren Hannah: \u00a0a woman, mistreated by Peninah, with an apparently oblivious husband Elkanah, and castigated by Eli. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The barren-woman motif occurs throughout the Bible (Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, Samson\u2019s mother, Hannah), for it was through such lowly characters that Israel realized its self-definition. \u00a0Israel was not among the major players in the ancient geopolitical sphere (those roles were held by Egypt, Assyria, Babylonia, etc.), but rather it was a small and less powerful nation, whose success was dependent on its fealty to God and on divine guidance. \u00a0All eyes, accordingly, are on Hannah, the lowly, who serves as the embodiment of Israel.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The book of Judges ended with two of the darkest narratives in the Bible: \u00a0the story of the concubine at Gibeah (ch. 19) and the near annihilation of the tribe of Benjamin (ch. 20). \u00a0True, this tribe is saved from extinction in ch. 21, but the entire book of Judges nonetheless ends on an ominous note: \u201cIn those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did as he pleased\u201d (21:25), implying an unruly and disorderly society. \u00a0The reader hopes for a more pleasant subject matter to commence the book of Samuel, and indeed this expectation is met in the person of Hannah.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image: Verlag von Wilhelm Jacobsohn, Breslau -

The narrative describes Hannah\u2019s method of prayer: \u201cHannah spoke in her heart. Only her lips moved but her voice was not heard.\u201d We know that Hannah\u2019s manner of praying is now the norm for individualized prayer, rather than the out-loud and open manner of prayer that had been the practice until then.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking on, Eli, the Kohen Gadol, misinterprets what he sees and make a critical mistake. Because Hannah\u2019s prayer is out-of-the-box, Eli jumps to the conclusion that she must be drunk, and further, he casts his judgement directly to Hannah. Now imagine, being in the depths of despair and pouring your heart out only to be met by criticism and judgmentalism \u2013 like being kicked when you\u2019re down. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rav Bazak from the Virtual Beit Midrash (VBM) points to two most likely responses to such a situation: 1) respond in anger, lashing back at the insensitivity to a highly emotional and personal moment, or 2) being cowed by the criticism resulting in self-doubt and acquiescence to a societal expectation. But Hannah takes a different road altogether \u2013 a higher road that essentially turns the channel on this exchange. Hannah calmly, patiently and respectfully stands her ground and explains her case: \u201cNo, my Lord, I have not drunk wine. I am a woman of sorrowful spirit and out of the greatness of my grief have I been speaking.\u201d A simple, measured, even-tempered response.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What could have been either an ugly confrontation or a sad subjugation of Hannah\u2019s authenticity ended instead in a win-win because three important character traits prevailed. Eli, as is often too rare in someone who has rushed to judgement, takes a step back and really listens to Hannah\u2019s story. Hannah in turn suppresses any hint of righteous indignation and instead responds with measured discourse while standing her ground. And finally, Eli responds to Hannah with the openness required to allow for a change of mind and attitude.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This singular short interaction between two strong personalities heralded not just a paradigm shift in individualistic prayer but serves as a model for productive discourse that passes the test of time.

After years of bareness, Hannah\u2019s prayer is answered. She bears a son, whom she names Samuel saying, \u201cBecause I have asked him (<em>she\u2019iltiv<\/em>) of the Lord\u201d (verse 20). Hannah\u2019s way of praying is described in some details: \u201cHannah was praying in her heart (medabberet \u2018al libah). Only her lips were moving but her voice was not heard\u201d, such that the priest of Shiloh, Eli, thought she must be drunk and mistakenly told her to \u201cput away her wine\u201d (verses 13-14).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Significantly, Hannah\u2019s style of \u201csilent prayer\u201d becomes a basis for how Jewish prayer should be offered until this day. According to the Talmud (Berakhot 31a), Rav Hamnuna said: How many important laws can be learnt from these verses relating to Hannah?! \u00a0\u201cHannah was praying in her heart (medabberet \u2018al libah)\u201d -- from this we learn that one who prays must direct his heart. \u201cOnly her lips were moving\u201d -- from this we learn that he who prays must frame the words distinctly with his lips. \u201cBut her voice was not heard\u201d -- from this we learn that it is forbidden to raise one's voice loudly in Prayer (i.e. in reciting the Amidah prayer). \u201cTherefore, Eli thought she must be drunk\u201d -- from this we learn that a drunken person is forbidden to recite the core Amidah prayer.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Midrash (Tanhuma Va-Yetzeh 4) learns from Hannah\u2019s \u201cpraying in her heart\u201d that a silent prayer, which a person \u201cwhispers in his heart\u201d is immediately heard by God. Midrash Shmuel 2:10 on our Scriptural verse, \u201cHannah was praying in her heart (medabberet \u2018al libah)\u201d, learns from the conjunction of this verse with another verse \u201c\u2026love the Lord your God and serve Him (u-le-\u2018ovdo) with all your heart and with all your soul\u201d (Deuteronomy 11:13) that prayer is the \u201cservice of the heart\u201d (ha-\u2018avodah she-ba-lev). In the continuation of this Midrashic text, the description of Hannah\u2019s silent prayer, \u201cOnly her lips were moving but her voice was not heard\u201d, is the Scriptural basis for the teaching that to be effective prayer need only be thought in the mind of the worshipper (meharher be-libo), without actually being spoken aloud at all. Midrash Genesis Rabbah 34:10 teaches a moral lesson from Hannah\u2019s silent prayer -- that righteous persons, like Hannah who \u201cwas praying in her heart\u201d, \u201ccontrol their hearts\u201d, while the wicked -- \u201ctheir hearts control them\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The on-going importance of the story of Hannah is reflected by the choice of this biblical narrative as the Haftarah for the first day of Rosh HaShannah. This liturgical practice links the birth of the prophet Samuel with the birth of the patriarch Isaac (Genesis, Chapter 21), which is the Torah portion for the first day of Rosh HaShannah. Both biblical stories emphasize the power of prayer, particularly by women seeking to bear children.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Image: <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight:

Joshua [transferred it] to the elders, the elders to the prophets, and the prophets transferred it to the Men of the Great Assembly. (Avot 1:1)<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having passed from the Torah (Moses) through the Books of Joshua and Judges (\u201cthe elders\u201d), we enter the era of the prophets with the Book of Samuel.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of what we read at the beginning of this book is familiar. Once again, our lead character lives on Mt. Ephraim, and, once again, there are traces of a link to Bethlehem (see our comments to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.929.org.il\/lang\/en\/page\/228\/post\/56271\">Judges 17<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.929.org.il\/lang\/en\/page\/230\/post\/56406\">19<\/a>) in his designation as Ephrati (v.1), a title used elsewhere to identify natives of Bethlehem (cf. Ruth 1:2). On the other hand, he is married to two women\u2014far fewer than several of the judges who had to have been married to numerous women in order to father their scores of children. Likewise, in a narrative manner reminiscent of the birth of Moses (Exodus 2), the father (here\u2014Elkanah, there\u2014Amram) recedes far into the background, leaving the women (here\u2014Hannah and Peninah, there\u2014Jochebed and Miriam) to dictate the course of events.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of particular interest here is the nature of the relationship between Elkanah\u2019s wives as described in verse 6: \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And her rival vexed her sore, to make her fret (<\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hir\u2019imah<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), because the LORD had shut up her womb\u201d (JPS 1917),<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which can be read in two completely different ways. According to the conventional reading, Peninah mocked Hannah\u2019s infertility increasing her despair. This is reflected in the first half of Rashi\u2019s commentary (ad loc): \u201cShe would say to her, \u2018Did you buy your older son a cloak today, or your younger son, a shirt\u2019?\" The unconventional reading, however, reflected in the continuation of that same commentary, imputes to Peninah a nobler intent: \u201cIn order to make her complain. Our Rabbis explain (Baba Batra 16a), 'in order to make her storm (<\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ra\u2019am<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">),' that she pray. Penina had good intentions.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So our hero, Samuel, seems to be the product of a kind of domestic tension we have seen previously. First, it matches the circumstances out of which Isaac emerged: a patriarchal father figure (Abraham), a favorite wife who is without child (Sarah), and a second wife (Hagar) whose fecundity makes a mockery of her rival\u2019s infertility. And it is also reminiscent of the situation of Jacob whose favorite, Rachel, was vexed by the fertility of her rival, Leah.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> New lyrics, but an old score.<\/span><\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":56733,"alt":"","title":"isam1-sarah_hagar","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","width":345,"height":210,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar-300x183.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":183,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","medium_large-width":345,"medium_large-height":210,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","large-width":345,"large-height":210,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","1536x1536-width":345,"1536x1536-height":210,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","2048x2048-width":345,"2048x2048-height":210,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","post_full_size-width":345,"post_full_size-height":210,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","home_baner-width":345,"home_baner-height":210}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"A New Era Starts With The \u201cSame Old\u201d","tile_main_caption_size":"1","tile_sub_caption":"Rival wives, one infertile, the other derisive - where have we heard this before?","tile_preview_embedded":"","tile_preview_image":{"id":56733,"alt":"","title":"isam1-sarah_hagar","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","width":345,"height":210,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar-300x183.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":183,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","medium_large-width":345,"medium_large-height":210,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","large-width":345,"large-height":210,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","1536x1536-width":345,"1536x1536-height":210,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","2048x2048-width":345,"2048x2048-height":210,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","post_full_size-width":345,"post_full_size-height":210,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-sarah_hagar.jpg","home_baner-width":345,"home_baner-height":210}},"tile_preview_video":"","tile_external_link":"","tile_tile_gallery_items":"","tile_credits":"","alternate_tile_top_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption_size":"1","alternate_tile_sub_caption":"","alternate_tile_hide_media":"0","tile_group_preview_image_url":"","tile_group_main_caption":"","tile_group_sub_caption":"","tile_group_popup_package_extra_content":"","tile_group_read_time":"","home_color":"","home_gallery_top":"","home_gallery_middle":"","home_gallery_book":"","home_gallery_bottom":"","seo_seo_title":"","seo_seo_description":"","seo_seo_default_title":"","seo_seo_default_description":"","links":false,"tile_link_for_pay":"0","send_noty":false,"chapter_info":{"books_group":"Prophets","book":"I Samuel","chapter":"1","chapter_main_number":"233","date":"20260721","wall_id":"233"},"link_for_pay":false,"tags":[{"term_id":"366","name":"Commentators","old_id":"766"},{"term_id":"526","name":"Husband\/Wife","old_id":"926"},{"term_id":"839","name":"Samuel","old_id":"1239"}]},{"order":15,"id":"56750","color":"#e2f4fa","size":"1","name":"Unyearned For Blessings;

My challenges in the road to motherhood were different: my sorrow and anguish came not from yearning for a child but feeling guilty that I did not dream of one. Even throughout my pregnancy, I was immersed in feelings of uncertainty and fear, ambivalence over motherhood, and anxiety that a child would bind me in irrevocable and unwanted ways. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The moment my son was born, though, transformed me in ways I could not have predicted. The fears and anxieties did not dissipate but they became anchored in a deep existential certainty that my child was wanted, that my becoming a mother was something I chose and desired and would not want to give up. And while I know this is not the reality that all women have, as some continue to feel misaligned with motherhood, my experiences moved me in a deeply spiritual way. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was in the daze of processing the corporeal aftermath of childbirth and feeling overwhelmed by the emotional experience of loving my child that Hannah\u2019s words came to mind. If Hannah was grateful to God because she received a child she so desperately prayed for, what should my gratitude look like? I hadn\u2019t known to beg God for a child, I did not have the yearning to pray for one. And still, God blessed me by giving me a gift that I did not know I wanted. Hannah\u2019s words humbled me and expanded my sense of spiritual gratitude. I realized that my thankfulness to God for becoming a mother must include an acknowledgment of radical divine generosity: God's gift of blessings granted that were not yearned for, of prayers answered that were not uttered.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>image by Gerd Altmann \/ pixabay<\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":56754,"alt":"","title":"isam1-prayer abstract","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract.jpg","width":1920,"height":1440,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract-300x225.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":225,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract-768x576.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":576,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract-1024x768.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":768,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1152,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract.jpg","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1440,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract-1200x900.jpg","post_full_size-width":1200,"post_full_size-height":900,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-prayer-abstract-560x420.jpg","home_baner-width":560,"home_baner-height":420}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"Unyearned For Blessings;

It\u2019s nothing new - it\u2019s the classic story of two wives - one loved, one less. One barren, one fruitful. And yet, the pain is deeper here. As the verses explain - each year Elkana and his two wives, Penina, and Hannah would go up to Shilo to bring sacrifices to God. Each time they would ascend, Peninah \u00a0would eat with her children, each receiving a portion while Hannah would look on the side, with her single portion. The reminder of her barrenness stared her in the face each trip, but that wasn\u2019t all. Each time, Peninah would mock Hannah, taunting her over her lack of children.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And so, for good reason, Hannah broke down. She cried. She prayed. She begged. All she wanted was one child. All she wanted was to be equal. To go up to Shiloh and feel blessed, not pained.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But her prayer came with a vow, a vow that leaves the reader troubled. She vows to God: if You give me a child, whom I want so dearly, I vow to give him up to you.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This vow makes absolutely no sense. She was being taunted for not having a child and so the greatest vindication and satisfaction for her would be to have a child and then give it up!? What is going on here?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think that this story is coming to teach us something profound that we all know but rarely express. Hannah was clearly in a position of complete desperation. Emotionally, she simply couldn\u2019t handle her reality anymore. That reality was that she was barren; that no matter how much she tried, she simply couldn\u2019t do what Penina could - have a child. And so she turned to God and asked Him not for a child, but rather the ability to have one. Just to be able to say that she too could have one, even if that meant giving him right to God right away.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, in moments of true desperation, we are willing to have moments with that which we want only to give it all up again.

A villain of the Holdfast type does not necessarily wish to cause harm. Nor does he (or she) necessarily hate the hero. The Holdfast merely wishes to protect the status quo, where he is in a position of power. Though he can wear many forms (from dragons and tyrants to obstructive parents), the Holdfast always stands between the hero and his mission. A hero, who is by nature \u201ca champion not of things become, but of things becoming\u201d (<em>The Hero with a Thousand Faces<\/em>, 289), must cross new thresholds to bring about new futures. He can\u2019t do so without overcoming the Holdfasts in his life.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Samuel 1 places such a \u201cHoldfast\u201d in Hannah\u2019s path: the aging High Priest Eli. When Hannah \u201crises\u201d, he is \u201csitting\u201d. When Hannah weeps and prays and makes a bold vow, one that demands from God a reciprocal relationship, Eli merely watches. When Hannah promises God of her own volition that which Manoah\u2019s wife only gave him by His instructions, her devotion goes right above Eli\u2019s head. As a guardian of the way things are, Eli is incapable of seeing Hanna\u2019s behavior as anything but a violation. While Hannah is actively seeking a life-affirming way out of her misery, Eli is busy telling her off.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some values are worth enforcing. But Eli judges Hannah by appearances, not values. Furthermore: The Book of Judges depicted in painful detail the kind of status quo that survived to Eli\u2019s time. Is this status quo truly worth preserving?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The following chapters answer this question with a resounding \u2018no\u2019. They show us just where Eli\u2019s \u201cHoldfast\u201d ways lead him. Eli will watch his sons exploit their position for personal gain, and do naught but offer ineffectual reproofs. When God will reject his house and bring about his children\u2019s death, Eli will die as he had entered the story: stationary and passive, an old man on a chair.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hannah, the woman who was not afraid to walk past Holdfasts and make a bid for a better future, will raise the son that will correct Eli\u2019s failures. Her son, who will continue her tradition of action and initiative, will constantly travel to bring justice to the Israelites, will actively lead them, and will be chosen by God to \u201cwalk before my anointed evermore.\u201d (2:35) God\u2019s message is clear: He rejects Eli\u2019s sedentary leadership. To break the status quo of Judges, a leader must act and take initiative. He must be walking \u201cevermore\u201d.<\/span><\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":56757,"alt":"","title":"isam1-superhero-mom","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom.jpg","width":1920,"height":1217,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-300x190.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":190,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-768x487.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":487,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-1024x649.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":649,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":974,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom.jpg","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1217,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-1200x761.jpg","post_full_size-width":1200,"post_full_size-height":761,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-663x420.jpg","home_baner-width":663,"home_baner-height":420}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"The Leader Has Become The Obstacle","tile_main_caption_size":"1","tile_sub_caption":"When the status quo needs changing, we need a hero who is a \u00a0\u201cchampion of things becoming\u201d: Hannah","tile_preview_embedded":"","tile_preview_image":{"id":56757,"alt":"","title":"isam1-superhero-mom","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom.jpg","width":1920,"height":1217,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-300x190.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":190,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-768x487.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":487,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-1024x649.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":649,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":974,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom.jpg","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1217,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-1200x761.jpg","post_full_size-width":1200,"post_full_size-height":761,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-superhero-mom-663x420.jpg","home_baner-width":663,"home_baner-height":420}},"tile_preview_video":"","tile_external_link":"","tile_tile_gallery_items":"","tile_credits":"","alternate_tile_top_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption_size":"1","alternate_tile_sub_caption":"","alternate_tile_hide_media":"0","tile_group_preview_image_url":"","tile_group_main_caption":"","tile_group_sub_caption":"","tile_group_popup_package_extra_content":"","tile_group_read_time":"","home_color":"","home_gallery_top":"","home_gallery_middle":"","home_gallery_book":"","home_gallery_bottom":"","seo_seo_title":"","seo_seo_description":"","seo_seo_default_title":"","seo_seo_default_description":"","links":false,"tile_link_for_pay":"0","send_noty":false,"chapter_info":{"books_group":"Prophets","book":"I Samuel","chapter":"1","chapter_main_number":"233","date":"20260721","wall_id":"233"},"link_for_pay":false,"tags":[{"term_id":"392","name":"Hero","old_id":"792"},{"term_id":"402","name":"Leadership","old_id":"802"},{"term_id":"437","name":"Prayer","old_id":"837"},{"term_id":"882","name":"Hannah","old_id":"1282"}]},{"order":19,"id":"56759","color":"#e2f4fa","size":"1","name":"Connection Of Anguish and Despair     ","post_title":"Connection Of Anguish And Despair","slug":"connection-of-anguish-and-despair","old_id":"56759","type":"no","iframe":"","writer":{"id":56425,"post_title":"Yardaena Osband","slug":"yardaena-osband","old_id":"56425","first_name":"Yardaena ","last_name":"Osband","description":"Yardaena Osband, MD is an Assistant Clinical Professor of Pediatrics at New York Medical College in Valhalla, New York and the managing director of Searchlight Science.

She takes those moments of pain and sorrow and uses them to connect to God. The connection is not joyful - it is full of anguish and anger, but it is a connection.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, the Talmud (Berachot 32b) depicts Hannah\u2019s bitter bargaining with God:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"Rabbi Elazar said: Hannah said before the Holy One, Blessed be He: Master of the Universe, if You will look upon me now, fine, and if not, in any case You will see. What was Hannah threatening? She said: I will go and seclude myself with another man before Elkana, my husband. Since I secluded myself, they will force me to drink the \u2018sotah water\u2019 to determine whether or not I have committed adultery. I will be found innocent, and since You will not make Your Torah false I will bear children.\"<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rabbi Elazar understood that her prayer was angry and full of hurt and desperation. She was so desperate that she was willing to make herself a <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sotah<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (suspected adulteress) in order to have a child. Yet, in that moment of intense anger Hannah does not turn away from God; rather, she is presented as forcing His hand to uphold His own judgement.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\"If You will indeed look upon the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your maidservant and will give Your maidservant a male child, I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall be no razor come upon his head\u201d (1:11).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hannah\u2019s dedication is remarkable: her longing for a child goes beyond the near-universal desire to parent; she wants a child in order to raise him to serve God. She dedicates the son that she provoked God to give her, to God, seeing her role as a mother to a boy whose life would be dedicated to God as a means by which to serve God herself.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is for these reasons that Hannah emotionally connects to so many of us. Her story reminds us that we can always talk and pray even if that prayer is full of anger and challenge, and that our goal is to lead a life where our actions are deliberately in service to God.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","post_main_content_image":{"id":56760,"alt":"","title":"isam1-weeping","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/png","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping.png","width":702,"height":1280,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-150x150.png","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-165x300.png","medium-width":165,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-562x1024.png","medium_large-width":562,"medium_large-height":1024,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-562x1024.png","large-width":562,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping.png","1536x1536-width":702,"1536x1536-height":1280,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping.png","2048x2048-width":702,"2048x2048-height":1280,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-658x1200.png","post_full_size-width":658,"post_full_size-height":1200,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-230x420.png","home_baner-width":230,"home_baner-height":420}},"post_main_content_embedded_video":"","post_main_content_video_duration":"","post_main_content_show_fb_comments":"1","post_main_content_credit_media":"","tile_top_caption":"","tile_main_caption":"Connection Of Anguish And Despair","tile_main_caption_size":"1","tile_sub_caption":"Why does Hannah\u2019s story resonate so deeply with many of us?","tile_preview_embedded":"","tile_preview_image":{"id":56760,"alt":"","title":"isam1-weeping","caption":"","description":"","mime_type":"image\/png","url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping.png","width":702,"height":1280,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-150x150.png","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-165x300.png","medium-width":165,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-562x1024.png","medium_large-width":562,"medium_large-height":1024,"large":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-562x1024.png","large-width":562,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping.png","1536x1536-width":702,"1536x1536-height":1280,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping.png","2048x2048-width":702,"2048x2048-height":1280,"post_full_size":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-658x1200.png","post_full_size-width":658,"post_full_size-height":1200,"home_baner":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/isam1-weeping-230x420.png","home_baner-width":230,"home_baner-height":420}},"tile_preview_video":"","tile_external_link":"","tile_tile_gallery_items":"","tile_credits":"","alternate_tile_top_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption":"","alternate_tile_main_caption_size":"1","alternate_tile_sub_caption":"","alternate_tile_hide_media":"0","tile_group_preview_image_url":"","tile_group_main_caption":"","tile_group_sub_caption":"","tile_group_popup_package_extra_content":"","tile_group_read_time":"","home_color":"","home_gallery_top":"","home_gallery_middle":"","home_gallery_book":"","home_gallery_bottom":"","seo_seo_title":"","seo_seo_description":"","seo_seo_default_title":"","seo_seo_default_description":"","links":false,"tile_link_for_pay":"0","send_noty":false,"chapter_info":{"books_group":"Prophets","book":"I Samuel","chapter":"1","chapter_main_number":"233","date":"20260721","wall_id":"233"},"link_for_pay":false,"tags":[{"term_id":"394","name":"Emotions","old_id":"794"},{"term_id":"437","name":"Prayer","old_id":"837"},{"term_id":"627","name":"Talmud","old_id":"1027"},{"term_id":"882","name":"Hannah","old_id":"1282"}]},{"order":20,"id":"56664","color":"#e2f4fa","size":"1","name":"Hannah     ","post_title":"Hannah","slug":"hannah","old_id":"56664","type":"no","iframe":"","writer":{"id":36669,"post_title":"Yakov Azriel","slug":"yakov-azriel","old_id":"36669","first_name":"Yakov ","last_name":"Azriel","description":"Yakov Azriel, who lives in Israel, has published five books of poetry in the USA and hundreds of poems in journals and magazines.

Samuel is invested with prophetic power by an act of God. But the writer understands that he is also a man, all too human, and that any kind of power, including spiritual power, can lead to abuse. Samuel toys with the idea of creating a kind of prophetic dynasty through his two sons, even though they are just as corrupt as the two sons of Eli; whose immoral behavior seals the doom of their father\u2019s priestly line, Is Samuel\u2019s choice of Saul really dictated by God, or rather by his own human preconceptions? (He is on the point of making the same mistake twice when he is ready to anoint David\u2019s eldest brother, Eliab, another strapping young man who seems to stand out from the crowd.) When he insists it is God\u2019s will that the entire population and all the livestock of Amalek should be slaughtered, and then offers King Agag as a kind of human sacrifice to the Lord, does he act with divinely authorized prophetic rightness, or as Martin Buber thought, is he confusing his own human impulses with God\u2019s will? The story of Samuel, then, far from being a simple promotion of prophetic ideology, enormously complicates the notion of prophecy by concretely imagining what may become of the imperfect stuff of humanity when the mantle of prophecy is cast over it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Samuel 1<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verse 8 - \"And Elkanah her husband said to her, 'Hannah, why do you weep and why do you not eat and why is your heart afflicted? Am I not better to you than ten sons?'\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commentary: <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Am I not better to you than ten sons?<\/span><\/em><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The double-edged poignancy of these words is that they at once express Elkanah\u2019s deep and solicitous love for Hannah and his inability to understand how inconsolable she feels about her affliction of barrenness. All the annunciation stories must be understood on light of the prevalent ancient Near Eastern view that a woman\u2019s great avenue to fulfillment in life was through the bearing of sons. It is noteworthy that Hannah does not respond to Elkanah. When she does at last speak it is to God.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From: Robert Alter, <\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Hebrew Bible<\/span><\/em><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vol. 2: Prophets, W.

Elkanah, the loving husband, tries to comfort his infertile wife: \u201cWhy are you so sad? Am I not more devoted to you than ten sons?\u201d (verse 8). His attempts are rebuffed. And it\u2019s easy to understand why. Yet, on the sensitivity scale of spouses of the anguished barren women of the Tanach, Elkanah is up there, and far ahead of Jacob. Jacob says to Rachel in similar circumstances: \u201cJacob was incensed at Rachel, and said, \u2018Can I take the place of God, who has denied you fruit of the womb?\u2019\u201d (Genesis 30:2).<\/span><\/li>\r\n\t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why today of all days?<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Our story begins with a yearly ceremony, the family pilgrimage to Shiloh, replete with the sacrifice, and the pain and insult. What brought Hannah to break with routine, and do the thing that would end up changing her life? Was it an especially egregious insult from Peninah? Elkanah\u2019s lack of sensitivity? \u00a0Something else entirely?<\/span><\/li>\r\n\t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>A very special prayer<\/em>. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such was Hannah\u2019s outpouring. And from the depths of this unique personal experience, this one-time outpouring of the heart, was established (according to tradition) the mandatory silent prayer (the Amidah, said thrice daily).<\/span><\/li>\r\n\t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shmuel-Shaul<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">? The explanation given for the name Samuel, seems more fitting to the name Saul, whom we will meet in another seven chapters: \u201cShe named him Samuel (Shmu'el), meaning, \u201cI asked (she'iltiv) the LORD for him.\u201d\u2026 the LORD has granted me what I asked of Him (she'elati asher sha'alti). I, in turn, hereby lend him (hish'iltihu) to the LORD.
