Contextual Overview
5 Now Saul was coming from the field behind the cattle, and he said, "What troubles the people? Why are they crying?" So they told him the news the men had brought from Jabesh. 6 The Spirit of God came upon Saul with power when he heard this news, and he became very angry. 7 He took two bulls and cut them in pieces and sent them through the land of Israel with the men who had brought the news, saying, "This will be done to the bulls of those who will not come out after Saul and Samuel." The fear of the Lord came upon the people, and they all came out together. 8 Saul numbered them at Bezek. There were 300,000 men of Israel, and 30,000 men of Judah. 9 They said to the men who had brought the news, "Tell the men of Jabesh-gilead that tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you will have help." So the men went and told the news to the men of Jabesh, and they were glad. 10 Then the men of Jabesh said, "Tomorrow we will give ourselves up to you. And you may do to us whatever you think is good." 11 The next morning, Saul put the people in three groups. They came among the tents early in the morning and killed the Ammonites until the heat of the day. Those who were left alive were divided, so that no two of them stayed together.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore the men of Jabesh said,.... To Nahash the Ammonite:
tomorrow we will come out unto you; meaning if they had no help, which they were well assured they should have; but this condition they expressed not, which they were not obliged to, but left him to conclude they had no hope of any, the messengers being returned, and the next being the last of the seven days' respite; and by this artifice the Ammonites were secure, and not at all upon their guard against an approaching enemy:
and ye shall do with us all that seemeth good unto you; make shows of them, pluck out their eyes, or put them to death, or do what they would with them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Tomorrow - Probably the last of the “seven days’ respite” 1 Samuel 11:3. Their words were spoken in guile, to throw the Ammonites off their guard.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 11:10. To-morrow we will come out unto you — They concealed the information they had received of Saul's promised assistance. They did come out unto them; but it was in a different manner to what the Ammonites expected.
