Judges 19:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Judges 19:10

8 Then he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart, but the young woman’s father said, “Please refresh your heart.” So they delayed until afternoon; and both of them ate.

9 And when the man stood to depart—he and his concubine and his servant—his father-in-law, the young woman’s father, said to him, “Look, the day is now drawing toward evening; please spend the night. See, the day is coming to an end; lodge here, that your heart may be merry. Tomorrow go your way early, so that you may get¹ home.”

10 However, the man was not willing to spend that night; so he rose and departed, and came opposite ^aJebus (that is, Jerusalem). With him were the two saddled donkeys; his concubine was also with him.

11 They were near Jebus, and the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, “Come, please, and let us turn aside into this city ^aof the Jebusites and lodge in it.”

12 But his master said to him, “We will not turn aside here into a city of foreigners, who are not of the children of Israel; we will go on ^ato Gibeah.”

13 So he said to his servant, “Come, let us draw near to one of these places, and spend the night in Gibeah or in ^aRamah.”

14 And they passed by and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.
