1 Samuel 9:25 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Samuel communed with Saul, concerning the kingdom designed to him by God, and his duty to expect it patiently, till God actually called him to it; and to administer it piously, and justly, and valiantly. The top of the house was flat, after the manner, Deuteronomy 22:8; and so fit for walking, and for secret prayers, Daniel 6:10 Acts 10:9, or any private and familiar discourses among friends.
