SEV Biblia, Chapter 19:10
Mas el varón no quiso quedar allí la noche, sino que se levantó y partió, y llegó hasta enfrente de Jebús, que es Jerusalén, con su par de asnos aparejados, y con su concubina.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 10. But the man would not tarry that night , etc.] He was determined upon his journey; he perceived there was no end of the solicitations of his father-in-law, and did not know how long he intended to detain him, and therefore was resolved not to hearken to him any longer: but he rose up and departed ; rose up from his seat, took his leave of his father-in-law, and proceeded on his journey: and came over against Jebus, which is Jerusalem ; which was then called Jebus, because inhabited by the Jebusites, as appears from the following verse; this was about six miles from Bethlehem f397 ; so far they were come on in their journey homewards: and there were with him two asses saddled ; which he brought with him when he came to Bethlehem, ( Judges 19:3) now said to be “saddled”, either for him and his concubine to ride on; or they were bound or girt, as the word signifies, being loaded with bread, and wine, and provender; or it may be one of them was for him and his concubine to ride on by turns, and the other to carry the provisions: and his concubine also was with him ; matters being now made up between them, she had agreed to go with him, and did, which was the end of his coming to her father’s house; and therefore this is observed on that account, as well as for what follows in the tragical part of this history.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The wickedness of the men of Gibeah. --The three remaining chapters of this book contain a very sad histor of the wickedness of the men of Gibeah, in Benjamin. The righteous Lor permits sinners to execute just vengeance on one another, and if the scene here described is horrible, what will the discoveries of the da 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' temptations, and to avoid the pollutions there are in the world __________________________________________________________________
