Compare all
23 But athe man, the master of the house, went out to them and said to them, “No, my brethren! I beg you, do not act so wickedly! Seeing this man has come into my house, bdo not commit this outrage.  
24 aLook, here is my virgin daughter and1 the man’s concubine; let me bring them out now. bHumble them, and do with them as you please; but to this man do not do such a vile thing!”  
25 But the men would not heed him. So the man took his concubine and brought her out to them. And they aknew her and abused her all night until morning; and when the day began to break, they let her go.  
26 Then the woman came as the day was dawning, and fell down at the door of the man’s house where her master was, till it was light.
27 When her master arose in the morning, and opened the doors of the house and went out to go his way, there was his concubine, fallen at the door of the house with her hands on the threshold.

Judges 19:1-30

The wickedness of the men of Gibeah.

- The three remaining chapters of this book contain a very sad history of the wickedness of the men of Gibeah, in Benjamin. The righteous Lord permits sinners to execute just vengeance on one another, and if the scene here described is horrible, what will the discoveries of the day of judgment be! Let each of us consider how to escape from the wrath to come, how to mortify the sins of our own hearts, to resist Satan's temptations, and to avoid the pollutions there are in the world.
