Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard those tidings,.... And filled him with pity and compassion to the inhabitants of Jabesh, and with wisdom and prudence, and set his thoughts at work to contrive ways and means for their relief, and with fortitude, courage, and resolution, to attempt their deliverance; so the Targum,

"the spirit of fortitude from the Lord dwelt on Saul:''

and his anger was kindled greatly; against Nahash the Ammonite for insulting Israel, and threatening to use the inhabitants of Jabesh in such a cruel manner.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

This time the Spirit of God came upon him, as upon the Judges before him, as a Spirit of supernatural energy and power.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 11:6. The Spirit of God came upon Saul — He felt himself strongly excited to attempt the relief of his brethren.

And his anger was kindled greatly. — I believe this means no more than that his courage was greatly excited - he felt himself strong for fight, and confident of success.
