Judges 19:16-19
work <04639> [his work.]
<03212> [whither.]
heading <01980> [I am now.]
The LXX. read, [eis ton oikon mou ego poreuomai:] "I am going to my own house;" which is probably the true reading, as we find (ver. 29) that he really went home; yet he might have gone previously to Shiloh, or to "the house of the Lord," because that was also in mount Ephraim.
home .......... home <01004> [the house.]
invited <0622> [receiveth. Heb. gathereth.]
straw ... grain <04554 08401> [straw and provender.]
In those countries principally devoted to pasturage, they made little or no hay: but as they raised corn, they took great care of their straw for cattle, which by their mode of threshing was chopped very small. See note on Ge 24:32.
