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 when they were a good way from the house of Micah,.... For it might be some time before Micah knew that his gods were stolen, and his priest was decoyed from him; and it must take up more time still to get his servants and neighbours together to pursue after those that injured him:
the men that were in the houses near to Micah's house were gathered together; no doubt at the request of Micah, who informed them of what had happened to him: and they being not only his neighbours, but deeply involved in the same superstition and idolatry, and closely addicted to it, and to whom it might in some respects be advantageous at it brought people from various parts to worship, or to consult the oracle: these being got together in a body, pursued
and overtook the children of Dan; who were obliged to move but slowly, because of their wives, little ones, and heavy substance they carried with them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Were gathered together - literally, “were called together.” The men, who were all Micah’s workmen, were probably in the fields with their master at the time of the robbery. When the women saw what was done they gave the alarm, and Micah called the men together as quickly as possible, and pursued the Danites and overtook them.
