Sebab itu ditanyakan pulalah kepada TUHAN: "Apa orang itu juga datang ke mari?" TUHAN menjawab: "Sesungguhnya ia bersembunyi di antara barang-barang."
Maka mereka itupun bertanyakan Tuhan pula kalau orang itu sudah datang ke mari juga, lalu sahut Tuhan: Bahwasanya sudah disembunyikannya dirinya di antara segala perkakasan.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore they inquired of the Lord further,.... Or again, by lot, by which they knew who the person was the was chosen king, but they did not know where he was, and therefore inquire further how they must come at him; and this inquiry was made either before the high priest by Urim and Thummim, or by Samuel the prophet of the Lord: and the inquiry was,
if the man should yet come thither; whether he was already come, or would come there, and if not, what methods they must take to find him:
and the Lord answered, behold, he hath hid himself among the stuff the word signifies household stuff, vessels, utensils, arms, c. which the people had brought along with them for their use, and were laid up in some one place and among these baggages Saul hid himself, hoping that if he was not found they would proceed to another choice, so free from ambition was he, and such was his modesty; nor does this seem to be affected and dissembled, but real; though afterwards, when he was settled in the kingdom, he did not care to part with it, and sought to kill David, whom he looked upon as his rival: there were many things which now concurred, that made him uneasy and unwilling to assume the government of the people; partly the envy and ill will of some of them, which he must expect; chiefly the sense he had of his own unfitness for such an office, being of a mean family, and having had so mean an education, and so little knowledge of the maxims of government; and besides, must at once, as soon as on the throne, enter into a war with the Ammonites; but what might most of all distress him, he perceived by Samuel's speech to the people, that the affair of a king was displeasing to the Lord, though he condescended to grant the people's request; and therefore what comfort and happiness could he expect in such a situation?
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Among the stuff - Rather, “the baggage.” The assembly was like a camp, and the baggage (impedimenta) of the whole congregation was probably collected in one place, where the wagons were arranged for protection.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 10:22. The Lord answered — What a continual access to God! and what condescension in his attention to all their requests!
The stuff among which he had secreted himself may mean the carts, baggage, &c., brought by the people to Mizpeh.
