I Samuel 10:26 Saul also departed to his own house in Gabaa: and there went with him a part of the army, whose hearts God had touched.

Touched; to consider the appointment of Saul, as his act. Afterwards they retired home, and the new king returned to his wonted occupations. The army here denotes part of the assembly, as the young men came with their leaders ready, if called, to march to battle, Exodus 6:26., and Deuteronomy 20:9. (Calmet)
