3 Then her husband arose and went after her to speak tenderly to her in order to bring her back , taking with him his servant and a pair of donkeys . So she brought him into her father's house , and when the girl's father saw him, he was glad to meet him.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Judges 19:3
Chapter Contents
The wickedness of the men of Gibeah.
The three remaining chapters of this book contain a very sad history of the wickedness of the men of Gibeah, in Benjamin. The righteous Lord permits sinners to execute just vengeance on one another, and if the scene here described is horrible, what will the discoveries of the day of judgment be! Let each of us consider how to escape from the wrath to come, how to mortify the sins of our own hearts, to resist Satan's temptations, and to avoid the pollutions there are in the world.
