13<\/strong>. he came to the high place<\/em> ] When Saul parted from the company of prophets which he met descending from the high-place, he went up there himself to worship.<\/p>\n Verse 13<\/span>. He came to the high place.<\/B><\/I>] I suppose this to mean the place where Saul’s father lived; as it is evident the next verse shows him to be at home<\/I>.<\/P> <\/p>\n Returning thither with the prophets, there to praise God for these wonderful favours, and to beg counsel and help from God in this high business. <\/P> <\/p>\n And when he had made an end of prophesying<\/strong>,…. For, as Procopius Gazaeus observes, he had not the gift of prophecy always; it did not continue with him, but, like that of the seventy elders in the times of Moses, it was designed to make him respectable among the people, and to be taken notice of as a person that God had honoured with a peculiar gift, that so, when he should be chosen king, they would the more readily receive him:<\/p>\n he came to the high place<\/strong>; to return thanks to God for the gift bestowed on him, and for that high honour and dignity he was raised unto, of which he had private knowledge; and to pray God to fit him more and more for government, and to, assist him in it, and help him to discharge his office in a wise and faithful manner.<\/p>\n 1Sa. 10:13<\/span>. When he had made an end of prophesying.<\/strong> The gift, therefore, in his case, was transitory, not permanent, as in Samuels: compare the case of Eldad and Medad, and the other elders, as contrasted with that of Moses (Num. 11:25<\/span>). (Wordsworth)<\/em>. The high place,<\/strong> whence the prophets had just descended. Saul went up<\/em> thither to pray and sacrifice in the holy place after his great experiences of the Divine favour and goodness, and so after his return home first to give God the glory before he returned to his family-life. He joined the descending<\/em> company of the prophets in their solemn procession; but when his participation in the utterances of the prophetic inspiration were over, his look rested on the sacred height whence the men had descended, and the impulse of the spirit of the Lord forced him up thither, that, after the extraordinary offering he had made with the prophets, he might make the ordinary offering, and engage in worship. (Erdmann)<\/em>.<\/p>\n 1Sa. 10:16<\/span>. Of the matter of the kingdom he told him not.<\/strong> This is to be referred, not to Sauls unassuming modesty, humility, or modesty (Keil and Ewald), or prudence (Themius), or apprehension of his uncles incredulity and envy, but to the fact that Samuel, by his manner of imparting the divine revelation, had clearly and expressly given him to understand (1Sa. 9:25<\/span>; 1Sa. 9:27<\/span>) that it was meant in the first instance for him alone, and that it was not the Divine will that he should share it with others. (Erdmann)<\/em>.<\/p>\n (13) He came to the high place.<\/strong>After he had spent his fervour in the hymn, and probably ecstatic prayer, Saul, before he went to his home, we read, betook himself at once to the high place of Gibeah, whence the sons of the prophets had just come down when he met them on the hill-side. He went there, no doubt, because, conscious of the change that had passed over him, and aware of his new powers, he felt a desire for solitary communing in the quiet of a holy sanctuary with God, who had come so near him.<\/p>\n 13<\/strong>. <\/strong> He came to the high place <\/strong> Whence the company of prophets had come down, (1Sa 10:5<\/span>,) and where he seems to have met his uncle, or friend.<\/p>\n 1Sa 10:13 And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.<\/p>\n Ver. 13. He came to the high place.<\/strong> ] Ut animum colligeret, et Deo gratias ageret,<\/em> a<\/em> to bless God, to pray for his blessing, and better bethink himself of his business. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> Tostat.<\/p>\n 1Sa 10:13. When he had made an end of prophesying Herein he differed from the prophets who met him, in that he prophesied but for a short time, this not being his office. And when he had done he went up to the high place from which they came down, they probably returning with him, to praise God for these wonderful favours, and to beg counsel and help from him in this high business.<\/p>\n And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place. 13. he came to the high place ] When Saul parted from the company of prophets which he met descending from the high-place, he went up there himself to worship.
