A couple of things come to mind. One is that there is something comical in this story, and in fact Saul's life has more than a little farce in it. I mean lost donkey's...a long way from Joseph looking for his brothers encountering the angelic "ish".

The other thing relates to hearing. We speak of the "third eye" as the seeing organ of the Seer. What about the "third ear"? Wilhelm Reik, a famous follower of Freud, wrote a book about psychoanalytic attention called, "Listening with the Third Ear".
