Study Lenses

The verse centers on "israel", "even", "beersheba", "knew", "samuel", "established", "prophet", and "lord". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "israel" and "even", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 19's "And Samuel grew and the LORD was..." into verse 21's "And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh...", so "israel" and "even" belong inside that flow. In 1 Samuel context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "israel" and "even" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
