Juízes 17:9 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 17:9

And Micah said unto him, whence comest thou?
&c.] For as he might ask for a meal, or for a night's lodging, it was but natural to put such a question to him, as from whence he came, and what was his business in these parts? or whither he was going?

and he said unto him, I am a Levite of Bethlehemjudah;
the tribe he was of was Levi, and so a Levite by tribe and office, and the place he came last from, and where he had sojourned awhile, was Bethlehem, a city in the tribe of Judah:

and I go to sojourn where I may find a place;
the most convenient to abide in, where he could get a livelihood.

Juízes 17:9 In-Context

7 E havia um mancebo de Belém de Judá, da família de Judá, que era levita, e peregrinava ali.
8 Este homem partiu da cidade de Belém de Judá para peregrinar onde quer que achasse conveniente. Seguindo ele o seu caminho, chegou � região montanhosa de Efraim, � casa de Mica,
9 o qual lhe perguntou: Donde vens? E ele lhe respondeu: Sou levita de Belém de Judá, e vou peregrinar onde achar conveniente.
10 Então lhe disse Mica: Fica comigo, e sê-me por pai e sacerdote; e cada ano te darei dez moedas de prata, o vestuário e o sustento. E o levita entrou.
11 Consentiu, pois, o levita em ficar com aquele homem, e lhe foi como um de seus filhos.
