Judges Chapter 19 is clearly not recommended behavior or a reflection of God's moral standard but placed as a historical explanation of the events that take place in Judges 20. One lesson we may take from this chapter is that if we allow ourselves to be influenced by the accepted moral values of today we will not be following God's moral standards given to us in the Bible. In the time of Judges we can see that people had turned away from God and His laws and followed a path that spiraled downward into ungodliness, they had set themselves apart from the Lord and his biblical standards. The same can happen today unless we maintain a steady diet of reading God's word, praying with and for each other and staying in fellowship with God's people.
Romans 15:4 "Whatever things were written before, were written for our learning."
