God judged Eli because he failed to discipline his sons, Hophni and Phinehas, who were corrupt and committed serious sins in their roles as priests, including dishonoring the offerings and engaging in immoral behavior. Despite knowing about their actions, Eli did not take appropriate action to correct or restrain them. As a result, God pronounced judgment on Eli’s household, stating that his family would face destruction and that the priesthood would be taken away from them. This judgment reflects the seriousness of leadership and accountability in spiritual matters.
