Acts 3:24 (2024) – Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. [cf. I Sam. 1:20 – Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the LORD. [Ellicott's Bible Commentary for English Readers comments that Samuel is from the Hebrew words literally meaning "heard of God." Other commentators use the term "asked of God," probably because asked is the word used in this verse. But when Hannah asked of God, God heard.]]
