	Eli (Judges) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eli (עֵלִי "Ascent", Standard Hebrew ʻEli, Tiberian Hebrew ʻĒlî) is the name of one of the last Israelite Judges before the rule of kings in ancient Israel.
		His sons (Hophni and Phinehas) were considered to be very wicked and were eventually struck down by God for the inreverence they showed in doing their priestly duties.
		God's judgment fell on Eli himself when hearing that Israel lost the Ark of the Covenant to their enemies.

	JewishEncyclopedia.com - JUDGES, BOOK OF
		It may be assumed, however, that the original Book of Judges was carried down to the end of the period and concluded with the story of Eli and Samuel, which forms the beginning of I Samuel.
		Nor is it impossible that the story, as Nöldeke was the first to assume, describes the ruin of Benjamin by the war between David and Saul's son and the insurrections under David.
		The earlier Book of Judges, a compilation of the stories of the five Great Judges together with the additions of the redactor, was practically Judges in its present form, with the exception of the Deuteronomistic framework (together with the story of Othniel), the six Minor Judges, and some later revised additions.

		Eli seems unimpressed with it all as he bats at a feathered toy, unaware that the nine huge ribbons decking the wall in the living room are the equivalent in dog terms of sweeping Westminster.
		As Eli matured, however, it was discovered he had only one testicle - a genetic fault she could not allow to be passed on by breeding him.
		Eli was neutered, which usually puts animals out of the running in "best of show" competitions.

	Eli (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Because Eli failed to deal firmly with their misconduct, an unnamed prophet denounced his house and predicted its downfall (vs. 23–36).
		A partial fulfilment came when Eli’s two sons, who carried the ark to the camp of the Israelites as a hoped-for aid in a war against the the Philistines, were slain in battle, and the ark was taken.
		Eli, who was then 98 years of age, upon receiving the news fell from his chair, broke his neck, and died (ch 4:1–18).

		Samuel did as instructed, and the LORD took him into his confidence and told him that he was through with Eli's house because of the wickedness of the sons.

		Her prayer was graciously granted; and after the child was weaned she brought him to Shiloh and consecrated him to the Lord as a perpetual Nazarite (1:23-2:11).
		The message that came from the Lord was one of woe and ruin to Eli and his profligate sons.
		The news of this fatal battle quickly arrived in Shiloh; and so soon as the aged Eli heard that the ark of God was taken, he fell backward from his seat at the entrance of the sanctuary, breaking his neck and dying.

	A Detailed Chronology of the Bible
		If the reign of the Judges is 450 years, and the reign of David is 40 years, and we have 4 years till Solomon, we already have 494 years, for a period said in 1 Kings 6:1 to be only 480 years.
		So while it is tempting to consider the book of the Judges (with Eli) to be a period of 450 years, it cannot be the correct method of interpretation.
		The Judges' account has Jephthah arguing with the children of Ammon, and Jephthah asks them why, if this is their land, they haven't claimed it for the last 300 years in which Israel had controlled the cities in question.

	BIBLE CHRONOLOGY
		We now return to the demonstration of the fact that the so-called Joshua - Judges chasm, or the period from the division of the Land to the oppression of Cushan, was a period of 13 years.
		From this analysis of the structure of the Book of Judges it will be seen that it is divided into two parts, each commencing with a summary statement of the fourfold cycle of events - apostasy, servitude, cry to God, deliverance - which are thereafter described in detail.
		This result is obtained from a close attention to the structure of the chapter.It is obtained from a careful consideration of the statements made in the Text itself, and it may be accepted as a true exposition of the author's intention and meaning.

	Partisan Patterns Detected in Civil Rights, Environment Decisions - In the Courts - OMB Watch
		Through their votes and opinions, primarily dissenting opinions, Bush appointees have advocated changing the law in ways that make it more difficult for aggrieved parties to vindicate their rights and for Congress to legislate in areas such as environmental protection.
		According to the ELI report, the percentage success rate for environmental petitioners in NEPA cases before the federal appeals courts declines significantly when moving from three-judge panels with Democratic-appointed judges to panels with Republican-appointed judges:
		The ELI concludes, "Simply put, the fact that an environmental plaintiff's chances of winning a NEPA case before the circuit courts varies by a factor of nearly six-to-one depending on the party of the judges' nominating president runs counter to our notion of impartial justice."

		The twelve judges of the present book, however, very probably exercised their authority, sometimes simultaneously, over one or another tribe of Israel, never over the entire nation.
		The accounts of various events, whether written shortly after their occurrence or orally transmitted, were later skillfully unified according to the moral purpose of the redactor some time during the Israelite monarchy.
