Maka sahut Semuel kepada Saul: Bahwa aku ini penilik itu; silakanlah naik ke atas tempat yang tinggi itu dahulu dari padaku, karena pada hari ini hendaklah kamu makan sehidangan dengan aku, dan pada esok harilah aku lepaskan kamu pergi; dan segala sesuatu yang dalam hatimupun akan kuberitahu kepadamu.

Contextual Overview

18 Then went Saul to Samuel in the middle of the gate, and sayd: Tell me I pray thee where the sears house is? 19 Samuel aunswered Saul and sayd, I am the sear: Go vp before me vnto the hil, for ye shall eate with me to day, and to morowe I wil let thee go, and wil tel thee all that is in thyne heart. 20 And as for thyne asses that were lost three dayes ago, care not for them, for they are founde: And whose shall the beawtiful thinges of Israel be? Belong they not to thee, and vnto all thy fathers house? 21 But Saul aunswered and sayde: Am not I the sonne of a Ieminite, of the smallest tribe of Israel? and my kinred is the lest of all the kinredes of the tribe of Beniamin? Wherfore then speakest thou so to me? 22 And Samuel toke Saul and his lad, and brought them into the parler, and made the sit in the chiefest place among them that were bidden, whiche were vpon a thirtie persons. 23 And Samuel sayde vnto the cooke: Bring foorth the portion which I gaue thee, and of which I said vnto thee, kepe it with thee. 24 And the cooke toke vp the shoulder, & that which was vpon it, and set it before Saul. And Samuel sayd: Behold that which is left, put it before thee and eate: for hytherto hath it ben kept for thee, saying: Also I called the people. And so Saul dyd eate with Samuel that day. 25 And when they were come downe fro the hyghe place into the citie, Samuel communed with Saul vpon the top of the house. 26 And when they arose earely about the spring of the day, Samuel called Saul vpon the toppe of the house, saying: Up, that I may send thee away. And Saul arose, and they went out, both he and Samuel. 27 And when they were come almost out of the towne, Samuel sayde to Saul: Bid the lad go before vs (and he went before) but stande thou stil a whyle, that I may shewe thee the worde of God.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

the seer: The word roaih literally signifies one who sees; particularly preternatural sights. A seer and a prophet were the same in most cases; only with this difference, the seer was always a prophet, but the prophet was not always a seer. A seer seems to imply one who frequently met with and saw some symbolical representation of God. All prophets, true or false, profess to see God - see Numbers 24:4, Numbers 24:16. Jeremiah 14:4, and diviners, in their enthusiastic flights, boasted that they had those things exhibited to their sight which should come to pass.

and will tell: John 4:29, 1 Corinthians 14:25

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Samuel answered Saul, and said, I am the seer,.... For he supposed, by inquiring for his house, that his business was with him; wherefore this he said, not as boasting of his character and office, or in the pride and vanity of his mind, but merely for information sake:

go up before me unto the high place; instead of returning home with him, he invited him to go to the place of feasting, as the Targum, whither he was going to partake of the entertainment there; and he bids him go before him, either because he was an old man, and could not go his pace, or he had business to do by the way, or this was in honour to Saul, whom he knew was to be king of Israel:

for ye shall eat with me today; he and his servant, at the public feast: he insisted upon his dining, or it may be rather supping with him:

and tomorrow I will let thee go; for it being in the evening when this feast was, he could not depart that night, but must stay till morning, and then he promised to dismiss him:

and will tell thee all that is in thine heart; answer all questions he had in his mind to ask him, for which he came into the city, and inquired for his house. The Jews l have a tradition that it was in the heart of Saul that he should be a king, having in a vision seen himself placed on the top of a palm tree, which was a sign of royalty, and this Samuel told him.

l Hieron. Trad. Heb. in lib. Reg. fol. 75. G.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 9:19. I am the seer — This declaration would prepare Saul for the communications afterwards made.
