Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when it was told Saul,.... That the messengers he had sent, instead of seizing on David, were prophesying of him, or however were attending to services of a different nature than what they were sent upon:
he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise; when they came to the same place:
and Saul sent messengers again a third time, and they prophesied also; joined the rest in singing praises, or foretelling future events.
