Hannah in 1 Samuel 1
HAN-uh
This person shows up in 1 Samuel 1:2: “He had two wives. The name of one was Hannah, and the name of other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real person in a real place.
1 Samuel 1:2
“He had two wives. The name of one was Hannah, and the name of other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.”
