What is noteworthy about how the narrator speaks of the Levite and the religious items?
Judges 18:27 (ESV)
27But the people of Dan took what Micah had made, and the priest who belonged to him, and they came to Laish, to a people quiet and unsuspecting, and struck them with the edge of the sword and burned the city with fire.
The narrator chooses to dignify neither the priest as Levite nor the religious artifacts as what they specifically are. Rather, he speaks simply of “what Micah had made, and priest who belonged to [Micah].
27 But the people of Dan took what Micah had made, and the priest who belonged to him, and they came to Laish, to a people quiet and unsuspecting, and struck them with the edge of the sword and burned the city with fire.
