In this new volume Ronald Wallace transforms the story of Hannah into a satisfying and illuminating Bible study for individuals and groups. The fruit of a lifelong exploration of the biblical texts, this book reflects Wallace's sensitivity to both the ancient context and the contemporary relevance of the Hannah narrative. Central to the story of Hannah's humble piety is the role of prayer in the life of faith. By moving carefully through the first seven chapters of 1 Samuel, readers will not only find encouragement for their own prayer life but will also discover the importance of praying for the people of God and for society as a whole. Filled with scholarly insight yet easily accessible to readers at every level, Hannah's Prayer and Its Answer provides a wonderful guide to this beloved -- and spiritually rich -- portion of scripture.
