Contextual Overview
9As Saul turned to leave Samuel, God changed Saul's heart, and all the signs came to pass that day. 10When Saul and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met him. Then the Spirit of God rushed upon him, and he prophesied along with them. 11All those who had formerly known Saul and saw him prophesying with the prophets asked one another, "What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?" 12Then a man who lived there replied, "And who is their father?" So the saying became a proverb: "Is Saul also among the prophets?" 13And when Saul had finished prophesying, he went to the high place. 14Now Saul's uncle asked him and his servant, "Where did you go?" "To look for the donkeys," Saul replied. "When we saw they were not to be found, we went to Samuel." 15"Tell me," Saul's uncle asked, "what did Samuel say to you?"16And Saul replied, "He assured us that the donkeys had been found." But Saul did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about the kingship.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Saul's uncle said, c. l On hearing he had been with Samuel, and perceiving so great an alteration in Saul, perhaps he began to suspect something about the kingdom it being what everyone was talking of, and expecting every day to hear from Samuel who should be king, according to the Lord's appointment:
tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you; the earnestness with which he put this question seems to confirm the above conjecture.
