Juízes 18:20 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 18:20

And the priest's heart was glad
He rejoiced that such an opportunity offered; it suited well with his covetous, ambitious, rambling, and unsettled disposition of mind:

and he took the ephod, and the teraphim, and the graven image;
and no doubt the molten image also, out of the hands of the five men into his own, agreeing to go with them, and officiate for them:

and went in the midst of the people;
the six hundred armed men, either for the security of himself, if Micah should raise his servants, and his neighbours, to pursue after him, and fetch him back, with his images; or, as others think, in imitation of the priests bearing the ark, who in journeying marched in the middle of the camp.

Juízes 18:20 In-Context

18 Quando eles entraram na casa de Mica, e tomaram a imagem esculpida, o éfode, os terafins e a imagem de fundição, perguntou-lhes o sacerdote: Que estais fazendo?
19 E eles lhe responderam: Cala-te, põe a mão sobre a boca, e vem conosco, e sê-nos por pai e sacerdote. Que te é melhor? ser sacerdote da casa dum só homem, ou duma tribo e duma geração em Israel?
20 Então alegrou-se o coração do sacerdote, o qual tomou o éfode, os terafins e a imagem esculpida, e entrou no meio do povo.
21 E, virando-se, partiram, tendo posto diante de si os pequeninos, o gado e a bagagem.
22 Estando eles já longe da casa de Mica, os homens que estavam nas casas vizinhas � dele se reuniram, e alcançaram os filhos de Dã.
