Genesis 18:24 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 18:24

22 Then the men turned away from there ^aand went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the Lord.

23 And Abraham ^acame near and said, ^b“Would You also ^cdestroy the ^drighteous with the wicked?

24 Suppose there were fifty righteous within the city; would You also destroy the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous that were in it?

25 Far be it from You to do such a thing as this, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that ^athe righteous should be as the wicked; far be it from You! ^bShall not the Judge of all the earth do right?”

26 So the Lord said, ^a“If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.”
