And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 11 is found in chapter 10 of 1 Samuel. When Saul encounters the prophets, the Spirit of God comes upon him and he experiences a transformation that astonishes those who know him. The question of whether Saul is also among the prophets becomes a memorable expression of his new situation. However, the episode does not mean that a spiritual experience guarantees permanent faithfulness. The later narrative will demonstrate that receiving divine signs and gifts does not eliminate the need for continual obedience.

所有先前認識 掃羅 的人看見了,看哪,他和先知一同受感說話,百姓就彼此說:「 基士 的兒子遇見了甚麼呢? 掃羅 也在先知中嗎?」
