1 SAMUEL 10:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?”
And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? — the word 'father' (ab) may refer to the leader or founder of the prophetic community. Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets? — this famous saying becomes proverbial, expressing the wonder of spiritual transformation. The proverb 'Is Saul also among the prophets?' will echo through the narrative (19:24), marking the mysterious way God's spirit empowers and transforms those chosen for divine service.
