Giudici 19:27 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 19:27

And her lord rose up in the morning

either in search of her, or rather to make the best of his way on his journey, to preserve his own life, having given her up for lost:

and, behold the woman his concubine was fallen down at the door of the
house, and her hands were upon the threshold;

Giudici 19:27 In-Context

25 Ma quegli uomini non vollero dargli ascolto. Allora l’uomo prese la sua concubina e la menò fuori a loro; ed essi la conobbero, e abusarono di lei tutta la notte fino al mattino, poi, allo spuntar dell’alba, la lasciaron andare.
26 E quella donna, sul far del giorno, venne a cadere alla porta di casa dell’uomo presso il quale stava il suo marito, e quivi rimase finché fu giorno chiaro.
27 Il suo marito, la mattina, si levò, aprì la porta di casa e uscì per continuare il suo viaggio, quand’ecco la donna, la sua concubina, giacer distesa alla porta di casa, con le mani sulla soglia.
28 Egli le disse: "Lèvati, andiamocene!" Ma non ebbe risposta. Allora il marito la caricò sull’asino, e partì per tornare alla sua dimora.
29 E come fu giunto a casa, si munì d’un coltello, prese la sua concubina e la divise, membro per membro, in dodici pezzi, che mandò per tutto il territorio d’Israele.
