Hospitality was a significant cultural value, and extended stays were not unusual. This timeframe also reflects the patience and persistence of the Levite, who had come to reconcile with his concubine.<p><b>they got up early in the morning</b><br>Rising early was typical for travelers in ancient times to avoid the heat of the day. This practice is seen throughout Scripture, such as in <a href="/genesis/19-27.htm">Genesis 19:27</a> when Abraham rose early to see the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. It signifies diligence and a readiness to undertake a journey.<p><b>and prepared to depart</b><br>The preparation to leave suggests a resolution to the initial conflict that brought the Levite to Bethlehem. It also indicates a transition in the narrative, moving from reconciliation to the impending journey, which will lead to significant events in Gibeah.<p><b>but the girl&#8217;s father said to his son-in-law</b><br>The father-in-law's role here is crucial, as he represents the familial and social customs of the time. His interaction with the Levite shows a desire to maintain peace and goodwill, reflecting the importance of family ties and reconciliation.<p><b>&#8220;Refresh your heart with a morsel of bread</b><br>This phrase is an invitation to extend hospitality further. "Refresh your heart" is a Hebrew idiom meaning to be strengthened or encouraged. Bread, a staple food, symbolizes sustenance and fellowship. This echoes the hospitality shown by Abraham in <a href="/genesis/18-5.htm">Genesis 18:5</a> when he offered bread to the divine visitors.<p><b>and then you can go.&#8221;</b><br>The father-in-law's suggestion to delay departure emphasizes the cultural importance of hospitality and rest before a journey. It also foreshadows the events that will unfold due to the delay, highlighting the narrative tension and the unfolding of God's providential plan.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_levite.htm">The Levite</a></b><br>A central figure in this account, the Levite is traveling with his concubine.
