Explore "Judges" by Samuel on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
In those days there was no king in Israel; there was a man, a Levite, who dwelled as a foreigner[note: Or "alien"] in the remote areas of the hill country of Ephraim. And he took for himself a concubine from Bethlehem in Judah.
But his concubine felt repugnance toward him,[note: Other modern translations read "his concubine played the harlot against him"] and she left him and went to her father's house, to Bethlehem in Judah; she was there some four months.
