VERSE (15) -
1Sa 3:2 Ps 90:10

SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:15

Era ya Elí de edad de noventa y ocho años, y sus ojos se habían oscurecido, de modo que no podía ver.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 15. Now
Eli was ninety eight years old , etc.] Which is very properly observed, he being now come to the end of his days, and which also accounts for his blindness after mentioned: and his eyes were dim, that he could not see ; could not see the messenger, and read in his countenance, and perceive by his clothes rent, and earth on his head, that he was a bringer of bad tidings; or his eyes each of them “stood” f89 ; were fixed and immovable, as the eyes of blind men be. In ( 1 Samuel 3:2) it is said, “his eyes began to wax dim”; but here that they “were” become dim; and there might be some years between that time and this, for Samuel then was very young, but now more grown up: though Procopius Gazaeus thinks that Eli was then ninety eight years of age, and that the affair there related was just before his death; but it rather appears to be some time before.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-18 - The defeat of the
army was very grievous to Eli as a judge; the tiding of the death of his two sons, to whom he had been so indulgent, an who, as he had reason to fear, died impenitent, touched him as father; yet there was a greater concern on his spirit. And when the messenger concluded his story with, "The ark of God is taken," he is struck to the heart, and died immediately. A man may die miserably, ye not die eternally; may come to an untimely end, yet the end be peace.
