פירוש על שמואל א 1:15

No, my lord. You are not master in this matter. You have revealed that the Holy Spirit is not resting upon you, otherwise you would have known that I am not intoxicated from wine.²⁶Maseches Berachos 31b.

No, my lord: Meaning to say - you, my lord, the matter is not like this. Rather, "I am a woman of troubled spirit," meaning to say, distressed and worried. But I have come here knowingly to pray; and not without intention like a drunkard. For "I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink."

No, my lord: I am not drunk, as you think. Rather, "I am a woman of a troubled spirit" - my spirit is troubled about me, from my great distress. And the construct form (smikhut) [of, "a troubled spirit"] is like, "of fallen leaves" (Isaiah 1:30); "of shaven beards" (Jeremiah 41:5); of torn clothes" (II Samuel 13:31).
