Contextual Overview
9 As Saul turned around to leave Samuel, God made Saul feel like a different person. That same day, everything happened just as Samuel had said. 10 When Saul arrived at Gibeah, a group of prophets met him. The Spirit of God suddenly took control of him, and right there in the middle of the group he began prophesying. 11 Some people who had known Saul for a long time saw that he was speaking and behaving like a prophet. They said to each other, "What's happened? How can Saul be a prophet?" 12 "Why not?" one of them answered. "Saul has as much right to be a prophet as anyone else!" That's why everyone started saying, "How can Saul be a prophet?" 13 After Saul stopped prophesying, he went to the place of worship. 14 Later, Saul's uncle asked him, "Where have you been?" Saul answered, "Looking for the donkeys. We couldn't find them, so we went to talk with Samuel." 15 "And what did he tell you?" Saul's uncle asked. 16 Saul answered, "He told us the donkeys had been found." But Saul didn't mention that Samuel had chosen him to be king.

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.
