Eli was a Priest and Judge of Israel; his sons were Phinehas and Hophni. He put his sons above God, because Eli would not control them. God cursed Eli's descendants with short lives. See I Samuel 2;12-36 for this interesting story regarding consequences for disobedience to God.
The Lord told Samuel that He would judge Eli's family for the sins of Eli's sons, Hophni and Phinehas, who had committed wicked acts as priests. The judgment included that no atonement would be made for their sins and that Eli's descendants would not live to old age.
The punishment for Eli's sons' sins of greed, disrespect, and corruption was that they would die before reaching old age. Additionally, their descendants would never hold positions of power or authority within the priesthood.
All Hebrew priests are of the tribe of Levi, descendants of Aaron.(Numbers 3:10/Exodus 40:12+15)
