Genesis 14:11 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 14:11

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.

14 Now ^awhen Abram heard that ^bhis brother was taken captive, he armed his three hundred and eighteen trained servants who were ^cborn in his own house, and went in pursuit ^das far as Dan.

15 He divided his forces against them by night, and he and his servants ^aattacked them and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is north of Damascus.

16 So he ^abrought back all the goods, and also brought back his brother Lot and his goods, as well as the women and the people.

17 And the king of Sodom ^awent out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, ^bthe King’s Valley), ^cafter his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him.

Abram and Melchizedek
