What awful question arises for us as the Levite travels home?
Judges 19:28 (ESV)
28He said to her, “Get up, let us be going.” But there was no answer. Then he put her on the donkey, and the man rose up and went away to his home.
As he makes his way from Gibeah to the Ephraimite hill country, we cannot help but have the lingering question as to whether or not she is still alive. We are not told.
28 He said to her, “Get up, let us be going.” But there was no answer. Then he put her on the donkey, and the man rose up and went away to his home.
