The Key Word — גְּמָלַ֗תּוּ, ge.ma.La.tugenerated
The verb גְּמַל (gamal) means 'to wean' and carries the connotation of bringing to maturity or treating someone well. It is often used in contexts involving nurturing and growth, reflecting a transition from dependency to independence.
In this verse, the perfect form indicates a completed action — Hannah has successfully weaned Samuel, making him ready for the next stage of his life. This act is not just physical but also symbolic of her dedication to God, as she prepares to bring him to the temple.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses the phrase Once she had weaned him. The KJV and ASV also align with this rendering, emphasizing the completion of the weaning process.
Where they differ is in the rendering of שְׁלֹשָׁה֙ as three (KJV, ASV) versus young (BSB, WEB). This distinction highlights the interpretations of the offerings accompanying Samuel.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb וַתַּעֲלֵ֨הוּ (va.ta.'a.Le.hu), meaning 'and she brought up him', governs the sentence, indicating the action Hannah takes. It is followed by a series of phrases that detail what she brings with her.
The structure reflects a clear sequence of actions: first, the weaning, then the bringing of Samuel and the offerings to the house of the LORD. The Hebrew word order emphasizes Hannah's actions and the significance of her offerings.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates וַתַּעֲלֵ֨הוּ as ἀνέβη (anebē), meaning 'she ascended' or 'she brought up'. This choice suggests a spiritual elevation in Hannah's act of dedication, highlighting the importance of her offerings as she approaches the sacred space.
The translation aligns closely with the Hebrew meaning, maintaining the sense of ascent and dedication inherent in the original text.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
1 Samuel 1:24 tells us that after weaning her son Samuel, Hannah took him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh. She brought offerings of a young bull, flour, and wine. This act shows her commitment to God and fulfills her promise to dedicate her son to the LORD.

Or, secondly, One for a burnt-offering the second for a sin-offering, the third for a peace-offering, of which they might all feast together; for all these sorts seem expedient for this work and time. One ephah of flour, for the meat-offerings belonging to the principal sacrifices, which to each bullock were three tenth deals, or three tenth parts of an ephah, as appears from 28:12; and so nine homers, or nine parts of the ephah, were spent, and the tenth part was either a separate meat-offering, or given to the priest.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(24, 25) With three bullocks . . . And they slew a bullock.—There at first sight seems a discrepancy here, and the LXX. translators seem to have felt it, for they read, instead of “three bullocks,” “a bullock of three years old.” The true explanation, however, is that the one bullock alluded to in 1 Samuel 1:25 was the burnt offering by which the child was consecrated to the Lord. The other two were the yearly festival offering, the presentation of which being the usual gift, the chronicler did not think it here worth while to mention again.

See Numbers 15:8. one ephah of flour] According to Josephus, the ephah contained about 8½ gallons, according to Jewish authorities about 4½ gallons. The smaller estimate is probably correct. Three tenth parts of an ephah of flour were to be offered with each bullock (Numbers 15:9) as a “meat-offering” (minchah). a bottle of wine] i.e. a skin-bottle, which would hold a considerable quantity.

The phrase "three days and three nights," Mt 12:40, was equivalent in Hebrew to the English "three days;" the Jews employing the expression "a day and a night" to denote our "day" of twentyfour hours. Nor did "three days," 1Sa 30:13, literally "this third day," according to their usage, necessarily include the whole of three days, but a part of three days, a continuous period including one whole day of twenty-four hours, and a portion of the day preceding it and the day following it. Compare Ge 7:12,17 1Sa 30:12-13.

Flour
Grain reduced to the form of meal is spoken of in the time of Abraham (Gen. 18:6). As baking was a daily necessity, grain was also ground daily at the mills (Jer. 25:10). The flour mingled with water was kneaded in kneading-troughs, and sometimes leaven (Ex. 12:34) was added and sometimes omitted (Gen. 19:3). The dough was then formed into thin cakes nine or ten inches in diameter and baked in the oven.
Fine flour was offered by the poor as a sin-offering (Lev. 5:11-13), and also in connection with other sacrifices (Num. 15:3-12; 28:7-29).

Wine
The common Hebrew word for wine is yayin, from a root meaning “to boil up,” “to be in a ferment.” Others derive it from a root meaning “to tread out,” and hence the juice of the grape trodden out. The Greek word for wine is oinos_, and the Latin _vinun. But besides this common Hebrew word, there are several others which are thus rendered.
(1.) Ashishah (2 Sam. 6:19; 1 Chr. 16:3; Cant. 2:5; Hos. 3:1), which, however, rather denotes a solid cake of pressed grapes, or, as in the Revised Version, a cake of raisins.
(2.) ‘Asis, “sweet wine,” or “new wine,” the product of the same year (Cant. 8:2;
The manufacture of wine is carried back in the Bible to the age of Noah, (Genesis 9:20,21) to whom the discovery of the process is apparently, though not explicitly, attributed. The natural history and culture of the vine are described under a separate head. [VINE] The only other plant whose fruit is noticed as having been converted into wine was the pomegranate. (Solomon 8:2) In Palestine the vintage takes place in September, and is celebrated with great rejoicing. The ripe fruit was gathered in baskets, (Jeremiah 6:9) as represented in Egyptian paintings, and was carried to the wine-press. It was then placed in the upper one of the two vats or receptacles of which the winepress was formed, and was subjected to the process of "treading," which has prevailed in all ages in Oriental…
The vine being natural to the soil of Canaan and its vicinity, wine was much used as a beverage, especially at festivals, Es 1:7 5:6 Da 5:1-4 Joh 2:3. As one of the staple products of the Holy Land, it was employed for drink-offerings in the temple service, Ex 20:26 Nu 15:4-10; it was included among the "first-fruits," De 18:4, and was used in the celebration of the Passover, and subsequently of the Lord’s supper, Mt 26:27-29. Together with corn and oil it denoted all temporal supplies,

Generally understood as denoting the Messiah, “the peaceful one,” as the word signifies (Gen. 49:10). The Vulgate Version translates the word, “he who is to be sent,” in allusion to the Messiah; the Revised Version, margin, “till he come to Shiloh;” and the LXX., “until that which is his shall come to Shiloh.” It is most simple and natural to render the expression, as in the Authorized Version, “till Shiloh come,” interpreting it as a proper name (comp.

It must be admitted, however, that the literal signification of the word is not well ascertained. Some translate, "The scepter shall not depart from Judah till he comes to whom it belongs." Others, with more probability, till the coming of the Peacemaker, or of the One desired.
