11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was unto him as one of his sons.
11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man, and the young man became to him like one of his sons.
11 The Levite agreed and moved in with Micah. The young man fit right in and became one of the family.
11 Then the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man became like one of his sons to him.
11 The Levite agreed to this, and the young man became like one of Micah's sons.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Judges 17:11
Commentary on Judges 17:7-13
(Read Judges 17:7-13)
Micah thought it was a sign of God's favour to him and his images, that a Levite should come to his door. Thus those who please themselves with their own delusions, if Providence unexpectedly bring any thing to their hands that further them in their evil way, are apt from thence to think that God is pleased with them.
