This chapter ends with people asking if Saul was among the prophets. This is another time that breaks my heart when it comes to looking at the life of Saul. Saul again has the presence of God on him. This is an opportunity to submit to God and embrace the truth. Yet, just because God's spirit has given Saul the ability to prophecy (speak the truth of God), Saul hasn't let that truth settle into his heart and change him. A reminder that someone may speak the truth and not be redeemed.
Saul has once again been touched by God. Light has entered Saul's mind, and it has changed nothing. What a sad, sad story. Let it never be said of us.
