Commentary for I Samuel 2:33

וְאִ֗ישׁ לֹֽא־אַכְרִ֤ית לְךָ֙ מֵעִ֣ם מִזְבְּחִ֔י לְכַלּ֥וֹת אֶת־עֵינֶ֖יךָ וְלַאֲדִ֣יב אֶת־נַפְשֶׁ֑ךָ וְכָל־מַרְבִּ֥ית בֵּיתְךָ֖ יָמ֥וּתוּ אֲנָשִֽׁים׃

Yet will I not cut off every man of thine from Mine altar, to make thine eyes to fail, and thy heart to languish; and all the increase of thy house shall die young men.

Rashi on I Samuel

And sadden.וְלַאֲדִיב is the same as 33See Devorim 28:65.וְלַדְאִיב [disillusioned].

Rashi on I Samuel

Will die as [young] men. Young. There is no comparison between the mourning for a young man and the mourning for a child.34Whose loss though tragic, is less keenly felt than the loss of a young man.
