'Grew' in the Bible

The Lord paid attention to Hannah’s need, and she conceived and gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Meanwhile, the boy Samuel grew up in the presence of the Lord.

By contrast, the boy Samuel grew in stature and in favor with the Lord and with men.

Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and He fulfilled everything Samuel prophesied.

When Samuel grew old, he appointed his sons as judges over Israel.
