1 Samuel 2:12 - The Message
Elis own sons were a bad lot. They didnt know God and could not have cared less about the customs of priests among the people. Ordinarily, when someone offered a sacrifice, the priests servant was supposed to come up and, while the meat was boiling, stab a three-pronged fork into the cooking pot. The priest then got whatever came up on the fork. But this is how Elis sons treated all the Israelites who came to Shiloh to offer sacrifices to God. Before they had even burned the fat to God, the priests servant would interrupt whoever was sacrificing and say, "Hand over some of that meat for the priest to roast. He doesnt like boiled meat; he likes his rare." If the man objected, "First let the fat be burned—Gods portion!—then take all you want," the servant would demand, "No, I want it now. If you wont give it, Ill take it." It was a horrible sin these young servants were committing—and right in the presence of God!—desecrating the holy offerings to God.
