The Key Word — תִּשְׁתַּכָּרִ֑ין, tish.ta.ka.Ringenerated
The verb שָׁכַר (shakar) means to become drunk or intoxicated. It is used in the Hithpael form here, indicating a state of being under the influence. This word is not just about consuming alcohol; it also encompasses the broader implications of losing control due to intoxication.
Eli's question, תִּשְׁתַּכָּרִ֑ין, directly challenges Hannah's behavior, implying that her actions are inappropriate for a woman of God. The use of this verb underscores the seriousness of Eli's misunderstanding and his concern for proper conduct in the temple.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses drunk for תִּשְׁתַּכָּרִ֑ין.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is וַיֹּ֤אמֶר, and he said, which governs the entire sentence. It introduces Eli's direct speech to Hannah, establishing the context of the dialogue.
The structure includes a direct address to Hannah, followed by a question about her state and a command regarding her wine. This flow emphasizes Eli's authority and concern, while also highlighting the misunderstanding of Hannah's actions.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates וַיֹּ֤אמֶר as εἶπεν, which is a straightforward rendering of 'he said.' This choice reflects a direct correspondence between the Hebrew and Greek in terms of speech.
The Greek word for תִּשְׁתַּכָּרִ֑ין is μεθυσθήσῃ, indicating a similar focus on the state of drunkenness, though the Greek construction does not carry the same nuance of the Hithpael form.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) And Eli said unto her.—The LXX. or Septuagint attempts to soften the harshness of the high priest to Hannah by inserting before Eli the word “servant,” or “young man,” thus suggesting that the hard, unjust words were spoken by an attendant. But it is clear that the English Version represents the true text here, for in the next verse Hannah replies directly to Eli with the simple words “No, my lord.”

A descendant of Ithamar, the fourth son of Aaron, who exercised the office of high priest in Shiloh at the time of the birth of Samuel. For the first time in Israel, Eli combined in his own person the functions of high priest and judge, judging Israel for 40 years (1Sa 4:18). The incidents in Eli's life are few; indeed, the main interest of the narrative is in the other characters who are associated with him. The chief interest centers in Samuel. In Eli's first interview with Hannah (1Sa 1:12 ff), she is the central figure; in the second interview (1Sa 1:24 ff), it is the child Samuel. When Eli next appears, it is as the father of Hophni and Phinehas, whose worthless and licentious lives had profaned their priestly…

The office remained in his family till the time of Abiathar (1 Kings 2:26, 27), whom Solomon deposed, and appointed Zadok, of the family of Eleazar, in his stead (35). He acted also as a civil judge in Israel after the death of Samson (1 Sam. 4:18), and judged Israel for forty years.

The office remained in his family till Abiathar was thrust out by Solomon, (1 Kings 1:7; 2:26,27) when it passed back again to the family of Eleazar int he person of Zadok. (1 Kings 2:35) Its return to the elder branch was one part of the punishment which had been denounced against Eli during his lifetime, for his culpable negligence. (
A high priest of the Jews, the first in the line of Ithamar, 1Sa 2:27. He was also a judge of Israel forty years, and was eminent for piety and usefulness, but criminally negligent of family discipline. For this the judgments of God fell upon his house, 1Sa 3:11-18. In battle with the Philistines his two sons were slain, and Israel defeated; but it was the capture of the ark of God that broke his heart, 1Sa 4:1-22. The divine threatening was fully performed in the day of Abiathar, which see.

Drunk
The first case of intoxication on record is that of Noah (Gen. 9:21). The sin of drunkenness is frequently and strongly condemned (Rom. 13:13; 1 Cor. 6:9, 10; Eph. 5:18; 1 Thess. 5:7, 8). The sin of drinking to excess seems to have been not uncommon among the Israelites.
The word is used figuratively, when men are spoken of as being drunk with sorrow, and with the wine of God’s wrath (Isa. 63:6; Jer. 51:57; Ezek. 23:33). To “add drunkenness to thirst” (
