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 E suo marito si levò e andò da lei per parlare al suo cuore e ricondurla seco. Egli avea preso con se il suo servo e due asini. Essa lo menò in casa di suo padre; e come il padre della giovane lo vide, gli si fece incontro festosamente.
4 Il suo suocero, il padre della giovane, lo trattenne, ed egli rimase con lui tre giorni; e mangiarono e bevvero e pernottarono quivi.
5 Il quarto giorno si levarono di buon’ora, e il Levita si disponeva a partire; e il padre della giovane disse al suo genero: "Prendi un boccon di pane per fortificarti il cuore; poi ve ne andrete".
6 E si posero ambedue a sedere e mangiarono e bevvero assieme. Poi il padre della giovane disse al marito: "Ti prego, acconsenti a passar qui la notte, e il cuor tuo si rallegri".
7 Ma quell’uomo si alzò per andarsene; nondimeno, per le istanze del suocero, pernottò quivi di nuovo.
