Read this first: 1 Samuel 1:6-7
The writer emphasises by repeating: the Lord has closed the door to Hannah's womb. And each year at the Lord's house, the other wife crushes her with that, until a sobbing Hannah cannot eat the Lord's fellowship meal. We can be sinfully cruel with words, using another's open wounds as easy targets. But to do so when also worshipping God is plain evil (Ja 3:9-10).
Based on the sermon “From a small seed”
