Pardes From Jerusalem

The Book of Samuel I Episode 3: The Crimes of the Priests Podcast Overview: Chana's piety stands in direct contrast to the officiating priests at Shilo, Chofni and Pinchas the sons of Eli. These two abuse their power and exalted position, desecrating God's service and victimizing the people of Israel. In consequence, doom is pronounced upon the house of Eli by God.
