John Gill's Bible Commentary Ver. 7. And when the man rose up to depart , etc.] Rose up from table, having ate and drank sufficiently, in order to depart the house, and proceed on his journey: his father in law urged him ; with much entreaty, and earnest solicitations, that he would stay all night with him: therefore he lodged there again ; another night, being prevailed upon through his father’s importunity.
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 _________________________________________________
