Contextual Overview
14Then the five men who had gone to spy out the land of Laish said to their brothers, "Did you know that one of these houses has an ephod, household gods, a graven image, and a molten idol? Now think about what you should do." 15So they turned aside there and went to the home of the young Levite, the house of Micah, and greeted him. 16The six hundred Danite men stood at the entrance of the gate, armed with their weapons of war,17while the five men who had gone to scout out the land went inside and took the graven image, the ephod, the household idols, and the molten idol, while the priest stood at the entrance of the gate with the six hundred armed men. 18When they entered Micah's house and took the graven image, the ephod, the household idols, and the molten idol, the priest said to them, "What are you doing?" 19"Be quiet," they told him. "Put your hand over your mouth and come with us and be a father and a priest to us. Is it better for you to be a priest for the house of one person or a priest for a tribe and family in Israel?" 20So the priest was glad and took the ephod, the household idols, and the graven image, and went with the people. 21Putting their small children, their livestock, and their possessions in front of them, they turned and departed. 22After they were some distance from Micah's house, the men in the houses near Micah's house mobilized and overtook the Danites. 23When they called out after them, the Danites turned to face them and said to Micah, "What is the matter with you that you have called out such a company?"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the six hundred men appointed with their weapons of war,.... Who were armed men, and marched with their armour about them:
which were of the children of Dan; for no other were concerned in this expedition: stood by the entering of the gate; not of Micah's house, but of the city in which his house was; here they stood while the five men went up to the house.
