10 [a]From there they arrived at Gibeah, where a band of prophets met Saul, and the spirit of God rushed upon him, so that he joined them in their prophetic ecstasy.(A) 11 When all who had known him previously saw him in a prophetic state among the prophets, they said to one another, “What has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”(B) 12 And someone from that district responded, “And who is their father?” Thus the saying arose, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”

10 When he and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the Spirit(A) of God came powerfully upon him, and he joined in their prophesying.(B) 11 When all those who had formerly known him saw him prophesying with the prophets, they asked each other, “What is this(C) that has happened to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”(D)
12 A man who lived there answered, “And who is their father?” So it became a saying: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”(E)

- 6:20–23 Michal’s reaction to David’s dancing comes from her conception of how a king should comport himself. David rejects this understanding, saying he needs no instruction from the house of the failed king, Saul.
