Shìshījì 19:21 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 19:21

So he brought him into his house
Showed him the way to it, and in a kind and friendly manner introduced him, and bid him welcome:

and gave provender unto the asses;
this is mentioned first, it being then perhaps, as now, the first thing that a careful man is concerned for, to see that his cattle is taken care of, and then himself; and such a method this ancient good man took with his guest:

and they washed their feet;
which was commonly done to strangers in those hot countries, and was very refreshing, see ( Genesis 18:4 ) ( 19:2 )

and did eat and drink;
sat down at table and supped with him.
