SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:20
Y haciendo allegar Samuel todas las tribus de Israel, fue tomada la tribu de Benjamín.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 20. And when Samuel had caused all the tribes to come near , etc.] The heads and representatives of them, to the place where the lots were cast: the tribe of Benjamin was taken ; the lot fell upon that tribe for the choice of a king out of it; not the tribe of, Reuben, who was the firstborn, nor the tribe of Judah, to whom the kingdom was promised, but the tribe of Benjamin, the least of all the tribes, and which sprung from the youngest son of Jacob, contrary, as it were probable, to the expectation of all.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 17-27 - Samuel tells the people, Ye have this day rejected your God. So littl fond was Saul now of that power, which soon after, when he possesse it, he could not think of parting with, that he hid himself. It is goo to be conscious of our unworthiness and insufficiency for the service to which we are called; but men should not go into the contrar extreme, by refusing the employments to which the Lord and the churc call them. The greater part of the people treated the matter with indifference. Saul modestly went home to his own house, but wa attended by a band of men whose hearts God disposed to support his authority. If the heart bend at any time the right way, it is becaus He has touched it. One touch is enough when it is Divine. Other despised him. Thus differently are men affected to our exalte Redeemer. There is a remnant who submit to him, and follow him whereve he goes; they are those whose hearts God has touched, whom he has mad willing. But there are others who despise him, who ask, How shall thi man save us? They are offended in him, and they will be punished __________________________________________________________________
