SCRIPTURE

"Then said Saul to his servant, Well said; come, let us go. So they went unto the city where the man of God was." — 1 Samuel 9:10 (ASV)

Then said Saul to his servant, well said
Or "good is your word" F4 , you have well spoken; it is a good proposal you have made, and you are very generous to give all you have to the man; and very promising it is, that since he is a seer he may inform us where the asses are, or which way we must take to find them. Things look feasible enough:

come, let us go :
to the city, and to the man of God there, and hear what he will say to us, and what information he will give us:

so they went unto the city where the man of God [was] ;
to Ramah, where Samuel dwelt.
