This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
1Sa_1:9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the LORD.
Ver. 9. So Hannah rose up.] Fasting as she was - not in ease to eat, because in heaviness; compare Lev_10:19, - she rose up to go to the place of worship and prayer, over against the most holy place. See 1Sa_1:15; 1Sa_1:18.
Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat.] Without the tabernacle; for within it, sacerdotibus neque edere neque sedere licebat, saith Vatablus, the priests might neither eat nor sit.
