Jueces 19:1-6

Listen to Jueces 19:1-6
1 En aquellos d铆as, cuando no hab铆a rey en Israel, hubo un levita que moraba como peregrino en los lados del monte de Efra铆n, el cual se hab铆a tomado mujer concubina de Bel茅n de Jud谩.
2 Y su concubina adulter贸 contra 茅l, y se fue de 茅l a casa de su padre, a Bel茅n de Jud谩, y estuvo all谩 por tiempo de cuatro meses.
3 Y se levant贸 su marido, y la sigui贸, para hablarle amorosamente y volverla, llevando consigo un criado suyo y un par de asnos; y ella le meti贸 en la casa de su padre.
4 Y vi茅ndole el padre de la joven, le sali贸 a recibir gozoso; y le detuvo su suegro, el padre de la joven, y qued贸 en su casa tres d铆as, comiendo y bebiendo, y reposando all铆.
5 Y al cuarto d铆a, cuando se levantaron de ma帽ana, se levant贸 tambi茅n el levita para irse, y el padre de la joven dijo a su yerno: Conforta tu coraz贸n con un bocado de pan, y despu茅s os ir茅is.
6 Y se sentaron ellos dos juntos, y comieron y bebieron. Y el padre de la joven dijo al var贸n: Yo te ruego que te quieras quedar aqu铆 esta noche, y se alegrar谩 tu coraz贸n.

Jueces 19:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO JUDGES 19

This chapter gives an account of a sad affair of a Levite and his concubine, and of the bad consequence of it, how that she played the whore, and went away from him to her father's house, whither he followed her, and where he was kindly entertained by her father several days, Jud 19:1-9 and then set out on his journey to his own country; and passing by Jebus or Jerusalem, he came to Gibeah, and could get no lodging, Jud 19:10-15, but at length was taken in by an old man, an Ephraimite, Jud 19:16-21 when the house where he was beset by some wicked men in Gibeah, with the same intent as the men of Sodom beset the house of Lot, Jud 19:22-24 and after some expostulation of the old man with them, the concubine was brought out to them and abused by them even unto death, Jud 19:25-28 upon which the Levite her husband cut her into twelve pieces, and sent them into all the coasts of Israel, which was shocking and surprising, Jud 19:29,30 the consequence of which is related in the next chapter.
