Exegesis
The narrative then moves through the vav-consecutive verbs vayakam {וַיָּ֣קָם | vayyāqām} ‘and he rose’, vayelekh {וַיֵּ֗לֶךְ | vayyēleḵ} ‘and he went’, and vayavo {וַיָּבֹא֙ | vayyāḇōʾ} ‘and he came’, each signaling successive action.
In context — Judges 19:10
But the man would not stay overnight, so he rose and departed, and he came to the opposite of Jebus, which is Jerusalem. And with him were a pair of saddled donkeys, and his concubine was with him.
