פירוש על שמואל א 1:27

This is the child that I prayed for. Do not say, "this one shall die and another shall be given to you."⁴⁴Ibid.

It was this boy I prayed for: Meaning to say, the prayer that I had prayed then was to ask for a son. And behold, this is the one to whom I gave birth.

To (el) the boy: For the boy.
