1 Samuel 2:35
Konteks2:35 Then I will raise up for myself a faithful priest. He will do what is in my heart and soul. I will build for him a secure dynasty 1 and he will serve my chosen one for all time. 2
1 Samuel 2:2
Konteks2:2 No one is holy 3 like the Lord!
There is no one other than you!
There is no rock 4 like our God!
1 Samuel 8:17
Konteks8:17 He will demand a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will be his servants.
[2:35] 2 tn Heb “and he will walk about before my anointed one all the days.”
[2:2] 3 sn In this context God’s holiness refers primarily to his sovereignty and incomparability. He is unique and distinct from all other so-called gods.
[2:2] 4 tn The LXX has “and there is none righteous like our God.” The Hebrew term translated “rock” refers to a rocky cliff where one can seek refuge from enemies. Here the metaphor depicts God as a protector of his people. Cf. TEV “no protector like our God”; CEV “We’re safer with you than on a high mountain.”
