Structure The New Revised Standard Version organises this chapter as follows: 1 Samuel 2:1–11 RSV = Hannah's Prayer 1 Samuel 2:12–17 RSV = Eli’s Wicked Sons 1 Samuel 2:18–21 RSV = The Child Samuel at Shiloh 1 Samuel 2:22–36 RSV = Prophecy Against Eli’s Household Prophecy against Eli's household Verses 22 to 25 introduce a topic dealing with the condemnation of the house of Eli on account of his sons' transgressions. The Masoretic Text of the Hebrew Bible, Targum, and Vulgate translation refer to Hophni and Phinehas' sins including both the misappropriation of food brought to sacrifice at the shrine in Shiloh and also their sexual relations with "the women who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of meeting".1 Samuel 2:22 NKJV The Septuagint and the Dead Sea Scrolls omit the latter issue.Brenton's Septuagint Translation, 1 Samuel 2Dead Sea Scrolls Bible Translations: 1 Samuel 2 from Scroll 4Q51 Samuel Eli hears of his sons' behaviour and challenges them to reform, but they take no account of his pleading. Then a "man of God" comes to Eli, a prophet of whom, says Donald Spence Jones, "we know nothing".Spence, H D M, Ellicott's Commentary for Modern Readers on 1 Samuel 2, accessed 20 April 2017 See also Hophni and Phinehas Notes References Bibliography Commentaries on Samuel Shmuel I – Samuel I (Judaica Press) translation [with Rashi's commentary] at Chabad.org Auld Graeme 1 & 2 Samuel https://books.google.com/books?id=2Vo-11umIZQC&dq=There+are+two+common+types+of+strategy+for+reading+the+books+of+Samuel&pg=PA213 James D.
