Commentary on 1 Samuel 1:16

Theological / Devotional

Count not. With calm self-possession under the sting of such a rebuke, with gentleness of spirit, and with respectful deference to one in authority, Hannah delicately referred to the private sorrows that had occasioned his misapprehension, and fearlessly affirmed her innocence. It was the same spirit in which Christ answered His accusers.
