Genesis 14:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 14:8

6 ^aand the Horites in their mountain of Seir, as far as El Paran, which is by the wilderness.

7 Then they turned back and came to En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and attacked all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt ^ain Hazezon Tamar.

8 And the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar) went out and joined together in battle in the Valley of Siddim

9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of nations, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five.

10 Now the Valley of Siddim was full of ^aasphalt pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled; some fell there, and the remainder fled ^bto the mountains.

11 Then they took ^aall the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their provisions, and went their way.

12 They also took Lot, Abram’s ^abrother’s son ^bwho dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

13 Then one who had escaped came and told Abram the ^aHebrew, for ^bhe dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner; ^cand they were allies with Abram.
