Jueces 18:23 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 18:23

And they cried unto the children of Dan
When they had got pretty near them, and in their hearing, they called to them aloud, and desired they would stop, having something to say to them:

and they turned their faces;
that is, the Danites turned and looked at them, and stopped to hear what they had to say to them; these were they who were in the rear in marching:

and said unto Micah;
who was at the head of them:

what aileth thee that thou comest with such a company?
as if he intended to attack them in an hostile way, and therefore asks what should be the occasion of it? what affront had been given him, what injury had been done him, that had provoked him to come out and follow them in such a manner?

Jueces 18:23 In-Context

21 Ellos, poniendo por delante a sus niños, su ganado y sus bienes, se volvieron y partieron.

22 Cuando ya se habían alejado de la casa de Micaías, los hombres que vivían cerca de Micaías se reunieron y dieron alcance a los danitas.

23 Como gritaban tras ellos, los danitas se dieron vuelta y le preguntaron a Micaías:—¿Qué te sucede, que has convocado a tu gente?

24 Micaías les respondió:—Ustedes se llevaron mis dioses, que yo mismo hice, y también se llevaron a mi sacerdote y luego se fueron. ¿Qué más me queda? ¡Y todavía se atreven a preguntarme qué me sucede!

25 Los danitas respondieron:—No nos levantes la voz, no sea que algunos de los nuestros pierdan la cabeza y los ataquen a ustedes, y tú y tu familia pierdan la vida.
