Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Levite was content to dwell with the man,.... To continue with him; after he had made trial for some time, he liked his service, and his wages, and way of living; it was all agreeable to him:

and the young man was unto him as one of his sons; as dearly beloved by him, and used as kindly and tenderly, as if he had been one of his own children; so strong were the affections of Micah to him, and so well pleased was he with his service.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Judges 17:11. The Levite was content — He thought the place a good one, and the wages respectable.
