SAUL, DESPAIRING TO FIND HIS FATHER'S ASSES, COMES TO SAMUEL. (I Samuel 9:1-14)
a mighty man of power—that is, of great wealth and substance. The family was of high consideration in the tribe of Benjamin, and therefore Saul's words must be set down among the common forms of affected humility, which Oriental people are wont to use.
