Observations from the Calling of Samuel (1 Sam 3.1-21)

God spoke to Samuel in time where hearing from Him was rare 1

Samuel was sleeping near the Ark! 2

The LORD’s voice was undistinguishable and God had to speak three times 4-10

Another man had to tell Samuel it was the voice of God 8-9

The calling was initiated by speaking Samuel’s name 10

God reveals His intentions for the house of Eli 11-14

Samuel reveals the judgment to Eli 15-18

Samuel grew into His calling and was confirmed by the people 19-21

Samuel’s calling was to do something simple and grew into being a important leader for the house of Israel 19-21
