‏ 1 Samuel 10:10

The third sign is the only one which is minutely described, because this caused a great sensation at Gibeah, Saul’s home. “And they (Saul and his attendant) came thither to Gibeah.” “Thither” points back to “thither to the city” in 1Sa 10:5, and is defined by the further expression “to Gibeah” (Eng. version, “to the hill:” Tr.). The rendering ἔκειθεν (lxx) does not warrant us in changing שׁם into משּׁם; for the latter would be quite superfluous, as it was self-evident that they came to Gibeah from the place where they had been in the company of Samuel.
