THE MESSAGE
So they kept going. As they pressed on, the sun finally left them in the vicinity of Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin. They left the road there to spend the night at Gibeah. The Levite went and sat down in the town square, but no one invited them in to spend the night. Then, late in the evening, an old man came in from his day's work in the fields. He was from the hill country of Ephraim and lived temporarily in Gibeah where all the local citizens were Benjaminites. When the old man looked up and saw the traveler in the town square, he said, "Where are you going? And where are you from?" The Levite said, "We're just passing through. We're coming from Bethlehem on our way to a remote spot in the hills of Ephraim. I come from there. I've just made a trip to Bethlehem in Judah and I'm on my way back home, but no one has invited us in for the night. We wouldn't be any trouble: We have food and straw for the donkeys, and bread and wine for the woman, the young man, and me—we don't need anything." The old man said, "It's going to be all right; I'll take care of you. You aren't going to spend the night in the town square." He took them home and fed the donkeys. They washed up and sat down to a good meal. They were relaxed and enjoying themselves when the men of the city, a gang of local hell-raisers all, surrounded the house and started pounding on the door. They yelled for the owner of the house, the old man, "Bring out the man who came to your house. We want to have sex with him." He went out and told them, "No, brothers! Don't be obscene—this man is my guest. Don't commit this outrage. Look, my virgin daughter and his concubine are here. I'll bring them out for you. Abuse them if you must, but don't do anything so senselessly vile to this man." But the men wouldn't listen to him. Finally, the Levite pushed his concubine out the door to them. They raped her repeatedly all night long. Just before dawn they let her go. The woman came back and fell at the door of the house where her master was sleeping. When the sun rose, there she was. It was morning. Her master got up and opened the door to continue his journey. There she was, his concubine, crumpled in a heap at the door, her hands on the threshold. "Get up," he said. "Let's get going." There was no answer. He lifted her onto his donkey and set out for home. When he got home he took a knife and dismembered his concubine—cut her into twelve pieces. He sent her, piece by piece, throughout the country of Israel. And he ordered the men he sent out, "Say to every man in Israel: ‘Has such a thing as this ever happened from the time the Israelites came up from the land of Egypt until now? Think about it! Talk it over. Do something!'"

Contextual Overview
1 En in dié dae was daar geen koning in Israel nie. En 'n Levitiese man het as vreemdeling vertoef agter in die gebergte van Efraim; en hy het vir hom 'n vrou, 'n byvrou, geneem uit Betlehem-Juda. 2 Maar sy byvrou het by hom gehoereer en van hom weggegaan na haar vader se huis, na Betlehem-Juda; en sy was daar vier maande lank. 3 Daarop maak haar man klaar en gaan haar agterna om na haar hart te spreek en haar terug te bring; sy dienaar was by hom met 'n paar esels. En toe sy hom in die huis van haar vader bring en die vader van die jong vrou hom sien, was hy bly om hom te ontmoet. 4 En sy skoonvader, die vader van die jong vrou, het hom teruggehou, sodat hy drie dae by hom gebly het; en hulle het geëet en gedrink en die nag daar oorgebly. 5 Maar terwyl hulle op die vierde dag vroeg in die môre opstaan en hy klaarmaak om weg te gaan, sê die vader van die jong vrou vir sy skoonseun: Versterk jou hart met 'n stukkie brood, en daarna kan julle weggaan. 6 En hulle het gebly, en hulle twee het saam geëet en gedrink. Daarop sê die vader van die jong vrou aan die man: Bly tog asseblief die nag oor, en laat jou hart vrolik wees. 7 Toe die man egter klaarmaak om weg te gaan, het sy skoonvader by hom aangedring, sodat hy weer die nag daar oorgebly het. 8 Terwyl hy op die vyfde dag vroeg in die môre klaarmaak om weg te gaan, sê die vader van die jong vrou: Versterk jou hart tog, en vertoef julle tot agtermiddag. En hulle twee het geëet. 9 Maar toe die man klaarmaak om weg te gaan, hy en sy byvrou en sy dienaar, sê sy skoonvader, die vader van die jong vrou, vir hom: Kyk, die son sak, dit wil aand word; bly julle maar die nag oor: kyk, dit is al laat, bly die nag hier oor, en laat jou hart vrolik wees; dan kan julle môre vroeg klaarmaak vir julle reis en na jou tente toe gaan. 10 Maar die man wou nie die nag oorbly nie en het klaargemaak en weggetrek en gekom tot teenoor Jebus--dit is Jerusalem--met 'n paar opgesaalde esels by hom; ook sy byvrou was by hom.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they passed on, and went their way,.... Proceeded on in their journey from Jebus or Jerusalem, near to which they were:
and the sun went down upon them when they were by Gibeah, which belongeth to Benjamin; which is added, to distinguish it from another Gibeah in the tribe of Judah, Joshua 15:57 when they were come pretty near to this place, on the side of it, as it seems, the sun was just setting, which determined them to take up their lodging here, as follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
