Contextual Overview
9 When Saul turned his back to leave Samuel, God changed his heart. And all these special things happened on that day. 10 When they came to the hill, a group of men who speak for God met him. The Spirit of God came upon him with power, so that he spoke God's Word with them. 11 People who had known him before saw him doing this and asked one another, "What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul one of the men who speak God's Word?" 12 One of the men there answered, "Now, who is their father?" So it became a saying: "Is Saul one of the men who speak God's Word?" 13 When Saul had finished speaking the Word of God, he went to the altar at the high place. 14 The brother of Saul's father said to him and his servant, "Where have you been?" And Saul said, "To look for the donkeys. When we saw that they could not be found, we went to Samuel." 15 The brother of Saul's father said, "Tell me, what did Samuel say to you?" 16 Saul said to his father's brother, "He told us that the donkeys had been found." But he did not tell him what Samuel had told him about being 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.
