Gn 19, 1-38

1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground; 2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night. 3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat. 4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: 5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them. 6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him, 7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly. 8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof. 9 And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door. 10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door. 11 And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door. 12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place: 13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it. 14 And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law. 15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city. 16 And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city. 17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed. 18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord: 19 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die: 20 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live. 21 And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken. 22 Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar. 23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar. 24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; 25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground. 26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt. 27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD: 28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace. 29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt. 30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters. 31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth: 32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father. 33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose. 34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our Father. 35 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose. 36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father. 37 And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day. 38 And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.

Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;

Dt 29:23 - And that the whole land thereof is brimstone, and salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth, nor any grass groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:

Sof 2:9 - Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall possess them.

Lk 17:29 - But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

Verš 9

And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.

Verš 26

But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

Lk 17:32 - Remember Lot's wife.

Gn 19,5 - Hriechy proti prírode mali Izraeliti vo veľkej ošklivosti a trestali ich smrťou Lv 20,13, ale boli veľmi rozšírené v ich okolí. Tento hriech má aj meno odtiaľto: sodomia (homosexualita).

Gn 19,8 - Práva hostí boli v starom Oriente také sväté, že Lot volí v tiesni vydať radšej vlastné dcéry ako hostí.

Gn 19,24-26 - Zničenie Sodomy a okolitých mestečiek stalo sa na zásah Boží. Lež Boh používa sily prírodné. Treba myslieť na časté zemetrasenie v Palestíne. Aj dnes sa tu nachodí asfalt, nafta a ložiská síry. Boh používa tieto živly a ničí hriešne mestá. Mohlo to byť zemetrasenie spojené s erupciou plynu. Mŕtve more, ktoré predtým nesiahalo až tak ďaleko na juh, následkom zemských otrasov a prehĺbenia asfaltových a petrolejových ložísk sa dostáva nižšie k juhu a zalieva kraj, kde stála Sodoma a ostatné zničené mestá. A táto prehĺbenina je dokázateľne geologicky mladšia ako ostatné okolie.

Gn 19,26 - "Premenila sa v soľný stĺp" – a naozaj, v okolí Mŕtveho mora je veľa skál, ktoré majú podobu človeka. Aj Pán Ježiš sa u Lk 17,32 odvoláva na Lotovu ženu.

Gn 19,30-38 - Lot sa nezdržal dlho v Segore, odišiel na vrchy, ktoré mu anjel bol poradil ako isté útočište. Stratil celé svoje imanie, je celkom chudobný a opustený. Jeho dve dcéry si myslia, že pre chudobu nebudú sa môcť ani vydať. Túžia však mať deti, znak to požehnania Božieho najmä vo vtedajšom Oriente. Tým však nemožno ospravedlniť skutok, ktorého sa vo svojej nerozumnosti dopúšťajú. Tak to neskoršie urobí aj Tamar, nevesta Júdova (Gn 38). Lotove dcéry narodili sa v Sodome, žili v Sodome, tak možno predpokladať, že mravné zákony u nich, zdá sa, veľmi neplatili. Myslia si, že ony sa musia postarať o potomstvo otcovo. Táto rozprava je dokladom hrozných následkov dedičného hriechu a ukazuje, čoho je človek schopný, keď nemá na mysli príkazy Božie. Ani Lot nie je bez viny, avšak jeho zodpovednosť umenšuje jeho opilosť. – Ľudové vysvetľovanie odvádza pôvod Moabčanov (mé 'áb ,od otca') a Amončanov (hebr. ben-'ammi ,syn môjho príbuzného'). Moabčania sa potom osadili na tých miestach, kde sa zdržiaval Lot po zničení Sodomy, na východnom (podľa niektorých západnom) brehu Mŕtveho mora; Amončania bývali severnejšie od Moabitov v Zajordánsku.
