Shmuel Alef 19:21 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 19:21

And when it was told Saul
That the messengers he had sent, instead of seizing on David, were prophesying of him, or however were attending to services of a different nature than what they were sent upon:

he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise;
when they came to the same place:

and Saul sent messengers again a third time, and they prophesied also;
joined the rest in singing praises, or foretelling future events.

Shmuel Alef 19:21 In-Context

19 And it was told Sha’ul, saying, Hinei, Dovid is at the dwellings of the nevi’im in Ramah.

20 And Sha’ul sent malachim to capture Dovid; and when they saw the kat (sect, group) of the nevi’im prophesying, and Shmuel standing as nitzav (overseeing) them, the Ruach Elohim was upon the malachim of Sha’ul, and they also prophesied.

21 And when it was told Sha’ul, he sent other malachim, and they prophesied likewise. And Sha’ul sent malachim again shelishim (third ones) and they prophesied also.

22 Then went he also to Ramah, and came to a bor hagadol (great pit) at Sechu; and he asked and said, Where are Shmuel and Dovid? And one said, Hinei, they are at the dwellings of the nevi’im in Ramah.

23 And he went there to the dwellings of the nevi’im at Ramah; and the Ruach Elohim was upon him also, and he walked along prophesying, until he came to the dwellings of the nevi’im at Ramah.
