1 Samuel 10:8

1 Samuel 10:8

6 Then ^athe Spirit of the Lord will come upon you, and ^byou will prophesy with them and be turned into another man.

7 And let it be, when these ^asigns come to you, that you do as the occasion demands; for ^bGod is with you.

8 You shall go down before me ^ato Gilgal; and surely I will come down to you to offer burnt offerings and make sacrifices of peace offerings. ^bSeven days you shall wait, till I come to you and show you what you should do.”

9 So it was, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, that God¹ gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.

10 ^aWhen they came there to the hill, there was ^ba group of prophets to meet him; then the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.

1 Samuel 10:9 >>

thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal—This, according to JOSEPHUS, was to be a standing rule for the observance of Saul while the prophet and he lived; that in every great crisis, such as a hostile incursion on the country, he should repair to Gilgal, where he was to remain seven days, to afford time for the tribes on both sides Jordan to assemble, and Samuel to reach it.
