THE MESSAGE
The Levite It was an era when there was no king in Israel. A Levite, living as a stranger in the backwoods hill country of Ephraim, got himself a concubine, a woman from Bethlehem in Judah. But she quarreled with him and left, returning to her father's house in Bethlehem in Judah. She was there four months. Then her husband decided to go after her and try to win her back. He had a servant and a pair of donkeys with him. When he arrived at her father's house, the girl's father saw him, welcomed him, and made him feel at home. His father-in-law, the girl's father, pressed him to stay. He stayed with him three days; they feasted and drank and slept. On the fourth day, they got up at the crack of dawn and got ready to go. But the girl's father said to his son-in-law, "Strengthen yourself with a hearty breakfast and then you can go." So they sat down and ate breakfast together. The girl's father said to the man, "Come now, be my guest. Stay the night—make it a holiday." The man got up to go, but his father-in-law kept after him, so he ended up spending another night.

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 when the man rose up to depart,.... Rose up from table, having ate and drank sufficiently, in order to depart the house, and proceed on his journey:
his father in law urged him; with much entreaty, and earnest solicitations, that he would stay all night with him:
therefore he lodged there again; another night, being prevailed upon through his father's importunity.
