I Samuel 2:35 And I will raise me up a faithful priest, who shall do according to my heart, and my soul: and I will build him a faithful house, and he shall walk all days before my anointed.

Faithful often denotes what shall continue a long time, Isaias 33:16., and 55:3. (Calmet) --- But in the conduct of Sadoc, we find nothing reprehensible. (Menochius) --- This faithful priest pointed out the Christian priesthood, as the sequel shews. (Calmet) --- All days. He shall perform his office. (Haydock) --- Anointed, king Solomon. (Menochius) --- The priests of the new law ought always to have Christ in view. (Calmet)
