• This is the only express mention of a sucking lamb being offered to the Lord in sacrifice, and its moral suitability at this juncture is very apparent. It typified Christ as the one who was obedient and devoted to God from His youth, offering Himself as a sweet savor on behalf of men who had nothing but wilfulness and disobedience to show. (“Complete Dependence on God” by W.W. Fereday)
• Samuel offers a sacrifice,1 token of entire surrender of self to the Lord, and of the people’s relationship with Him. (“1 Samuel 7” by J.N. Darby)
