more on Eli and us
I think that Eli was a judge. He did all the things a judge did, in being close to God and settling disputes. In the Samuel chapters he (Eli) sat at the main pole of the Tabernacle tent: the place of a judge. I suspect that there was a continual line of judges from Moses to Samuel, then they gave way to the kings.
Carol is so right that temptations get to us where we are vunerable like our families. And temptations are frequent if not constant. I think that life is a battle to do what is right, its a great battle to be in for we have great help for our God in many forms. And from other people!
