Genesis 19:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 19:2

Sodom’s Depravity

1 Now ^athe two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and ^bLot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.

2 And he said, “Here now, my lords, please ^aturn in to your servant’s house and spend the night, and ^bwash your feet; then you may rise early and go on your way.” And they said, ^c“No, but we will spend the night in the open square.”

3 But he insisted strongly; so they turned in to him and entered his house. ^aThen he made them a feast, and baked ^bunleavened bread, and they ate.

4 Now before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both old and young, all the people from every quarter, surrounded the house.

5 ^aAnd they called to Lot and said to him, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? ^bBring them out to us that we ^cmay know them carnally.”
