So the Rechabites (as it is in Jeremiah) when they obeyed their father Jonadab, 1who commanded them to drink no wine all their life time, or to dwell in Cities, were for the same cause praised of God. Howbeit Hanna unless she had had a peculiar inspiration from God, she could not have vowed, that Samuel should all his life time have ministered at the tabernacle of the Lord: for as much as the law of god absolved men from the ministry at a certain space of years, namely in the .50. year.

1But that which I have said, that it was lawful for Hanna to vow the vow of a Nazarite for her son, it seemeth not to be firm with the definition of a vow, which is thus brought of the Master of the Sentences: A vow is a testification of a willing promise made unto God,2 of things which pertain unto God. But a vow which is vowed by the parent for the son, can not seem willing. Yea but it is: because the parents vowed not being compelled, but of their own free will: farther, it is mete for the children to obey the will of their parents freely & of their own accord, especially when they command no ungodly thing, or contrary to the word of God.
