Abel ~he had a WICKED heart, and he NEVER repented for killing his brother in cold blood.
It was Cain who killed Abel not the other way around.

Eli ~an abominable father who allowed his sons, un-checked, to do abominations in the Temple, which reveals his "utter lack of regard for God and that he placed his sons above the living God). He did NOT "fear God" or he would've abhorred the sin his own sons were committing right in the Temple in God's face. He was a tragic figure of a father.

Nevertheless, God appointed Eli as His high priest and Eli was faith in serving God. Best yet, Eli successfully mentored Samuel, one of the greatest prophets of the Old Testament.

Festus
Eli had no "fear of God" and thus allowed his sons to be abominably wicked right in the Temple and did nothing to chastise them or remove them, etc. God "allowed" Samuel to be in the care of Eli (just as He allowed Saul to reign as king in all his rebellion and wickedness), in spite of Eli being a sawwy figure of a priest. God also pronounced judgement on Eli and his sons. In addition, this is why Eli died the the tragic way he did.

Isaac ~the long-promised son of Abraham and Sarah.

King Solomon- Although he obeyed King David, his father in following through on building the temple, he had no "fear of the Lord" as his father David did. He became not only a worshiper of many gods, but he also "sacrificed" to them.
