Commento su I Samuele 10:12
וַיַּ֨עַן אִ֥ישׁ מִשָּׁ֛ם וַיֹּ֖אמֶר וּמִ֣י אֲבִיהֶ֑ם עַל־כֵּן֙ הָיְתָ֣ה לְמָשָׁ֔ל הֲגַ֥ם שָׁא֖וּל בַּנְּבִאִֽים׃
E uno dello stesso posto rispose e disse: 'E chi è il loro padre?' Quindi è diventato un proverbio: 'Saulo è anche tra i profeti?'
Rashi on I Samuel
And who is their father? Why do you wonder about the matter as to who is the father of the prophets? Is prophecy hereditary?6Or וּמִי אֲבִיהֶם can mean “Who is their teacher?” for one’s teacher is called his father as in II Melachim 2:12. He implied to the people that ‘ה is their teacher and just as He teaches the other prophets, He can teach Shaul too.—Radak
