"Thy servant heareth"

BERENICE H. SILBERBERG

THE story of Samuel, the child who was brought up in the temple at Shiloh, is one much loved by all Bible readers.

When Samuel was still a young boy, one evening after he had lain down for the night he heard a voice calling him. Thinking it was Eli, the priest whom he served, calling to him, Samuel went to Eli, who told him that he had not called and that he should lie down again. After this had occurred the third time Eli realized that it was the voice of God speaking to the child, and told him to answer, "Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth." This the child obediently did.
