1 Samuel 10:13 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 10:13

And when he had made an end of prophesying
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:

he came to the high place;
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.

1 Samuel 10:13 In-Context

11 Y aconteció que, cuando todos los que le conocían de ayer y de anteayer, vieron como profetizaba con los profetas. Y el pueblo decía el uno al otro: ¿Qué ha sucedido al hijo de Cis? ¿Saúl también entre los profetas?
12 Y un varón de allí respondió, y dijo: ¿Y quién es el padre de ellos? Por esta causa se tornó en proverbio: ¿También Saúl entre los profetas?
13 Y cesó de profetizar, y llegó al alto.
14 Y un tío de Saúl dijo a él y a su criado: ¿Dónde fuisteis? Y él respondió: A buscar las asnas; y como vimos que no parecían , fuimos a Samuel.
15 Y dijo el tío de Saúl: Yo te ruego me declares qué os dijo Samuel.
