1 Samuel 2:15, Berean Standard Bible

Hannah's prayer opens this chapter, but verse 15 belongs to the account of Eli's sons Hophni and Phinehas, priests at Shiloh. Under the law, the fat of a sacrifice belonged to the LORD and was burned first, and the priests received specified portions only after that.
