1 SAMUEL 2:26 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the Lord, and also with men.”
Now the boy Samuel continued to grow and to gain favor both with the LORD and also with the people—*vayigdal Shemu'el* (Samuel grew) contrasts with the moral decay of Eli's sons. His favor (*chesed*, covenant love and grace) with both divine and human realms marks him as chosen.
