Giudici 19:5 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 19:5

And it came to pass on the fourth day
The time the Levite had agreed to stay being up:

when they arose early in the morning
the Levite, his concubine and servant, in order to set out on their journey: that he arose to depart; the Levite rose up from his seat to take his leave of his father-in-law, and depart from his house, and proceed on his way homeward; for rising out of his bed is before expressed:

and the damsel's father said to his son in law, comfort thy heart with
a morsel of bread;
take a breakfast first, that he might be fitter for his journey, for bread comforts or strengthens men's hearts, ( Psalms 104:15 ) though here it may be put for any and all sorts of provisions, whatever might be proper to take early in a morning, and before setting out on a journey: and afterwards go your way; he seemed as if he was willing he should set forward, after he had refreshed him with a meal.

Giudici 19:5 In-Context

3 Poi il suo marito si levò, e le andò dietro, per piegare il cuor suo con dolci parole, e per ricondurla; e avea seco il suo servitore, e un paio d’asini. Ed ella lo menò in casa di suo padre; e il padre della giovane, come l’ebbe veduto, gli si fece lietamente incontro.
4 E il suo suocero, padre della giovane, lo ritenne; ed egli dimorò con lui tre giorni; e mangiarono, e bevvero, e albergarono quivi.
5 E, al quarto giorno, si levarono la mattina; e il Levita si mise in ordine per andarsene; ma il padre della giovane disse al suo genero: Confortati il cuore con un boccon di pane, e poi voi ve ne andrete.
6 Così si posero amendue a sedere, e mangiarono, e bevvero insieme; e il padre della giovane disse a quell’uomo: Deh! piacciati star qui questa notte, e il cuor tuo si rallegri.
7 Ma quell’uomo si levò per andarsene; ma pure il suo suocero gli fece forza, talchè egli se ne ritornò, e stette quivi quella notte.
