SEV Biblia, Chapter 19:5
Y al cuarto día, cuando se levantaron de mañana, se levantó también el levita para irse, y el padre de la joven dijo a su yerno: Conforta tu corazón con un bocado de pan, y después os iréis.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 5. And it came to pass on the fourth day , etc.] The time the Levite had agreed to stay being up: when they arose early in the morning the Levite, his concubine and servant, in order to set out on their journey: that he arose to depart; the Levite rose up from his seat to take his leave of his father-in-law, and depart from his house, and proceed on his way homeward; for rising out of his bed is before expressed: and the damsel’s father said to his son in law, comfort thy heart with a morsel of bread ; take a breakfast first, that he might be fitter for his journey, for bread comforts or strengthens men’s hearts, ( <19A415> Psalm 104:15) though here it may be put for any and all sorts of provisions, whatever might be proper to take early in a morning, and before setting out on a journey: and afterwards go your way; he seemed as if he was willing he should set forward, after he had refreshed him with a meal.
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 __________________________________________________________________
