Contextual Overview
18 Then Saul came to Samuel in the gate, and said, "Tell me, where is the man of God's house?" 19 Samuel answered Saul and said, "I am the man of God. Go up before me to the high place. For you will eat with me today, and tomorrow I will let you go. And I will tell you all that is on your mind. 20 Do not worry about your donkeys which were lost three days ago, for they have been found. And for whom is all the desire of Israel? Is it not for you and for all your father's house?" 21 Saul answered, "Am I not a Benjamite, from the smallest of the family groups of Israel? Is not my family the least important of all the families of Benjamin? Why then do you speak to me this way?" 22 Then Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the meeting room. He gave them a place at the head of those who were asked to come, about thirty men. 23 Samuel said to the one who was making the food ready, "Bring the part I gave you and told you to set aside." 24 So the man picked up the leg with what was on it and set it in front of Saul. And Samuel said, "Here is what has been saved for you. Eat. It has been kept for you until the right time, ever since I asked the people to come." So Saul ate with Samuel that day. 25 When they came down from the high place into the city, Samuel spoke with Saul on the roof. 26 They got up early the next day. Samuel called to Saul on the roof, saying, "Get up, that I may send you on your way." So Saul got up, and both he and Samuel went out into the street. 27 As they were going out of the city, Samuel said to Saul, "Tell the servant to go on before us, but you stand here. Then I will make the Word of God known to you."
