On her way: She went to her home and ate. It appears that she had not eaten with her husband; or it is possible that she ate a little when her husband had pleaded. But now her heart was gladdened and she ate. And in the homiletical teachings: What is, "on her way" - that she began to menstruate, like (Genesis 31:35), "since the way of women is with me."
