Juízes 19:23 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 19:23

And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them
Opened the door, and went out to converse with them, and talked them after this manner:

and said unto them, nay, my brethren, nay, I pray you, do not so
wickedly;
it is plain he understood them in such sense, that they meant not bare knowledge of the man, as who he was but to commit wickedness the most abominable; so great, that it cannot be well said how great it is; and to dissuade from it, he uses the most tender language, and the most earnest entreaties:

seeing this man is come into my house, do not this folly;
he argues from the law of hospitality, which ought not to be infringed; a man being obliged to protect a stranger under his roof; and from the nature of the crime, which was folly, stupidity, and what was abominable to the last degree.

Juízes 19:23 In-Context

21 E os levou para a sua casa e alimentou os jumentos. Depois de lavarem os pés, comeram e beberam alguma coisa.
22 Quando estavam entretidos, alguns vadios da cidade cercaram a casa. Esmurrando a porta, gritaram para o homem idoso, dono da casa: “Traga para fora o homem que entrou em sua casa para que tenhamos relações com ele!”
23 O dono da casa saiu e lhes disse: “Não sejam tão perversos, meus amigos. Já que esse homem é meu hóspede, não cometam essa loucura.
24 Vejam, aqui está minha filha virgem e a concubina do meu hóspede. Eu as trarei para vocês, e vocês poderão usá-las e fazer com elas o que quiserem. Mas, nada façam com esse homem, não cometam tal loucura!”
25 Mas os homens não quiseram ouvi-lo. Então o levita mandou a sua concubina para fora, e eles a violentaram e abusaram dela a noite toda. Ao alvorecer a deixaram.
