VERSE (8) -
:11 Ne 13:10,11

SEV Biblia, Chapter 17:8

Este varón se había partido de la ciudad de Belén de Judá, para ir a vivir donde hallase; y llegando al monte de Efraín, vino a casa de Micaía, para de allí hacer su camino.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Judges 17:8

Verse 8. To
sojourn where he could find] He went about the country seeking for some employment, for the Levites had no inheritance: besides, no secure residence could be found where there was no civil government.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 8. And the man departed out of the city from Bethlehemjudah , to
sojourn where he could find a place, etc.] Either being a man that had a rambling head, and of an unsettled mind, and could not easily fix any where; or else there being no supreme magistrate, to take care that the Levites had their due maintenance, for which there was a sufficient provision made by law; and the people being negligent of paying their tithes, there being none to oblige them to it, and they indifferent to the true worship of God, and prone to idolatry; this man was obliged to go abroad, and seek for a livelihood where he could get it, and sojourn in a place the most convenient for him: and he came to Mount Ephraim, to the house of Micah, as he journeyed : not with a design to stay there, but called by the way, having heard perhaps that Micah was both a wealthy and an hospitable man, and he also might have heard of the new form of worship he had set up in his house.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 7-13 - Micah thought it was a sign of
God's favour to him and his images, tha a Levite should come to his door. Thus those who please themselves with their own delusions, if Providence unexpectedly bring any thing to their hands that further them in their evil way, are apt from thence to think that God is pleased with them __________________________________________________________________
