6 And it came to pass, when they had come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely Yahweh's anointed is before him. 6 When they arrived, Samuel took one look at Eliab and thought, "Surely this is the Lord 's anointed!" 6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD’S anointed is before him. 6 When they arrived, Samuel saw Eliab, and he thought, "Surely the Lord has appointed this person standing here before him." 6 When they arrived, Samuel noticed Eliab and said to himself, "Surely, here before the Lord stands his chosen king!" 6 And it came to pass when they had come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD'S anointed [is] before him. 6 It happened, when they had come, that he looked at Eliab, and said, Surely Yahweh's anointed is before him. 6So it happened, when they had come, he looked at Eliab [the eldest son] and thought, "Surely the LORD'S anointed is before Him." 6 When they came, he looked on Eliab and thought, "Surely the Lord 's anointed is before him." 6 And whanne thei hadden entrid, he siy Eliab, and seide, Whether bifor the Lord is his crist?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then Samuel took the horn of oil,.... Out of his pocket, which he brought along with him by the direction of God:

and anointed him in the midst of his brethren; not in the presence of them, they sitting around, or standing by and seeing the ceremony performed; which is not consistent with the secrecy with which Samuel was directed to manage this affair, and which was necessary to observe, to keep it from the knowledge of Saul; and with Eliab's treatment of David afterwards, who would never have addressed him in the manner he did, had he known that he was anointed king, 1 Samuel 17:28 but the sense is, according to Kimchi and Abarbinel, that he was selected out of them, and separated from them, and privately anointed by Samuel, and at most only his father Jesse present; wherefore some observe, that the words may be rendered, "anointed him from the midst of his brethren" h; that is, he took him apart from them, and anointed him:

and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward; not as a spirit of grace and holiness, which probably had come upon him before this time; but a spirit of prophecy, as did on Saul after his unction; and which particularly showed itself in music and poetry, in which he immediately became very eminent, and he was taken notice of for it, and which was the means of bringing him into Saul's court; and a spirit of wisdom and prudence, in civil as well as in sacred things; and a spirit of fortitude, as the Targum, of strength of body, and courage and valour of mind; whereby he was enabled to encounter with the lion and bear, and get the mastery of them; which, with all other gifts of the spirit fitting him for government, he was now endowed with, and which continued with him:

so Samuel rose up and went to Ramah his native place, and where he resided; that is, after the festival of the peace offerings, to which Jesse and his sons were invited; for the anointing seems to be before that.

h So Pool, Patrick, &c.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The Spirit ... came upon David - The exact phrase used of the Judges and Saul. See 1 Samuel 10:6, note; Judges 3:10, note; Judges 6:34, note; Judges 11:29, note; Judges 14:18, note; Judges 15:14, note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 16:13. The Spirit of the Lord came upon David — God qualified him to be governor of his people, by infusing such graces as wisdom, prudence, counsel, courage, liberality, and magnanimity.
