撒母耳记上 3章10节 到 3章10节 背景资料 上一笔 下一笔

     * the Lord came.
       This seems to imply a visible appearance, as well as an
       audible voice.

     * as at other.
     # 4-6,8|
       Samuel did not now rise and run as before, when thought he Eli
       called, but lay still and listened.  All must be silent, when
       God speaks.  Observe, however, Samuel in his reply left out
       one word:  he did not say, Speak, Lord, but only Speak, for
       thy servant heareth; perhaps, as Bp. Patrick suggests, out of
       uncertainty, whether it was God that spake to him or not.
       However, by this answer way was made for the message he was
       now to receive, and Samuel was brought acquainted with the
       words of God and visions of the Almighty.
