1 Samuel 2:24
Context2:24 This ought not to be, 1 my sons! For the report that I hear circulating among the Lord’s people is not good.
1 Samuel 4:11
Context4:11 The ark of God was taken, and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phineas, were killed.
1 Samuel 16:10
Context16:10 Jesse presented seven of his sons to Samuel. 2 But Samuel said to Jesse, “The Lord has not chosen any of these.”
1 Samuel 31:6
Context31:6 So Saul, his three sons, his armor bearer, and all his men died together that day.


[16:10] 2 tn Heb “caused seven of his sons to pass before Samuel.” This could be taken as referring to seven sons in addition to the three mentioned before this, but 1 Sam 17:12 says Jesse had eight sons, not eleven. 1 Chr 2:13-15 lists only seven sons, including David. However, 1 Chr 27:18 mentions an additional son, named Elihu.
