Contextual Overview
14 Daarop het die vyf man wat gegaan het om die land van Lais te verken, aan hulle broers begin sê: Weet julle dat in hierdie huise 'n skouerkleed en huisgode en 'n gesnede en 'n gegote beeld is? Weet dan nou wat julle moet doen! 15 Hulle het toe daarheen uitgedraai en gekom by die huis van die jongman, die Leviet, die huis van Miga, en hom na sy welstand gevra. 16 Onderwyl die ses honderd man wat uit die kinders van Dan was, met hulle wapens omgord voor die ingang van die poort gaan staan, 17 het die vyf man wat gegaan het om die land te verken, opgegaan, daar ingekom, die gesnede beeld en die skouerkleed en die huisgode en die gegote beeld geneem, terwyl die priester by die ingang van die poort bly staan saam met die ses honderd man met wapens omgord. 18that they were saying to you, "In the last time there will be mockers, following after their own ungodly lusts." 19These are the ones who cause divisions, worldly-minded, not having the Spirit. 20But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, 21keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. 22And on some, who are doubting, have mercy; 23and for others, save, snatching them out of the fire; and on others have mercy with fear, hating even the tunic polluted by the flesh.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they turned thitherward,.... It seems as if the house lay a little out of their way, and therefore they turned on one hand to go unto it:
and came to the house of the young man the Levite, even unto the house of Micah; for the young man's house was only an apartment of Micah's, and lay very probably next to that in which the images, and oracle were; and they made up to the young man's apartment, rather than to Micah's, because the above things were under his care:
and saluted him; asked him of his welfare in a kind and obliging manner, the rather to ingratiate themselves unto him.
