This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
1Sa_2:31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father’s house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.
Ver. 31. I will cut off thine arm,] e.g., The ability and dignity of thy family. See Zec_11:17. {See Trapp on "Zec_11:17"}
There shall not be an old man in thine house,] Because, being an old man, thou hast no better quitted thyself in thy place and station, This was not executed for many years after, that it might be considered, and course taken to prevent it. God therefore threateneth, that he may not be put to punish.
