A man out of the land of Benjamin.
The story of Kish the Benjamite and
his son Saul, "a choice young man and
a goodly," should be read from the
beginning of the chapter: . Saul and
his servant, ,seeking his father's lost
asses, had decided to visit the Prophet
Samuel,' supposing that, on payment
of a feee.he, out of his extraordinary
knowledge, would tell them where the
asses were to be found. Co they tame
to the town of Remelt where Samuel
lived.
Samuel had just returned to the city
from one of his official circuits, and
was abotit to take part in a public
sacrifice and feast, euch as was cuss
toniary in those days at the time of
tho new moon or on special occasions
of thankegiving, He was to "blese
the sacrifice," or rather "pronounce
a blessing of thanksgiving at the
feast," which was regarded as a part
of the sacrifice.
Saul drew near, They :net in the
gate of the little city, where was the
rearketeplace and the usual plaee of
public concourse. He came looking for
a small thing; he was to receive some,.
thing very great. The tall young
countrymau must have been amazed
to find himself expected, made an
honored guest at the feast, and ad-
dressed as one by whsom great things
were to be done. First of all Samuel
told him that the lost asses were
found. Then he said to him that the
desire of Israel was upon him and
upon his father'house.
