Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah,.... He went on from the well towards the place:
and the Spirit of God was upon him also; as well as upon his messengers; even the spirit of prophecy, as the Targum:
and he went on and prophesied until he came to Naioth in Ramah: in this he differed from his messengers; they did not prophesy till they came to that place, but Saul began to prophesy before he came thither, as he was in his way from the well to it.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 19:23. He went on, and prophesied — The Divine Spirit seemed to have seized him at the well of Sechu; and he went on from that prophesying-praying, singing praises, c. till he came to Naioth.
