Exegesis
This urging triggers the resultative clauses wayyāšáv {וַיָּשָׁב | wayyāšáv} ‘and he returned’ and wayyā́lên {וַיָּלֶן | wayyā́lên} ‘and he spent the night’, culminating in the adverb šām {שָׁם | šām} ‘there’. The English translation mirrors this chronological flow and renders the Hebrew purpose and result constructions transparently.
In context — Judges 19:7
And the man arose to go, but his father-in-law urged , so he returned and spent the night there.
