Bible Background Commentary
Wesley's Outline
This chapter contains articles of agreement betwixt the great Jehovah, the father of mercies, and pious Abram, the father of the faithful. Mention was made of this covenant, Genesis 15:18. but here it is particularly drawn up. Here are,

- II. The covenant itself, in the particular instances.
- 1. That he should be the father of many nations, Genesis 17:4. 6. and in token of that his name was changed, Genesis 17:5.
- 2. That God would be a God to him and his seed, and would give them the land of Canaan, Genesis 17:7,8. and the seal of this part of the covenant was circumcision, Genesis 17:9-14.

I. The visit which God made him, Genesis 18:1-8
II. The matters discoursed of between them,
- 1. The purposes of God's love concerning Sarah, Genesis 18:9-15.
- 2. The purposes of God's wrath concerning Sodom:
J. Vernon McGee
Bible Exposition Commentary
The Genesis by Haley
- Jesus likened the time of His Return to the days of Sodom, Luke 17:26-32;
- Jesus did also liken the time to the days of the Flood.
- Both were periods of unspeakable wickedness.
- Today, on a scale never before known in history with greed, brutality, beastliness, and criminal instincts . . .
- Unless there comes a world-movement of Repentance, the Day of Doom may not be far off.
ARCHAEOLOGICAL NOTE:
SUMMARY
- The Lord appears unto Abraham in Mamre, 1.
- Three angels, in human appearance, come towards his
tent, 2.
- He invites them in to wash and refresh
themselves, 3-5;
- prepares a calf, bread, butter,
and milk, for their entertainment; and himself
serves them, 6-8.
- They promise that within a year
Sarah shall have a son, 9, 10.
- Sarah, knowing
herself and husband to be superannuated, smiles
at the promise, 11, 12.
- One of the three, who is
called the LORD or Jehovah, chides her, and
asserts the sufficiency of the Divine power to
accomplish the promise, 13, 14.
- Sarah, through
fear, denies that she had laughed or showed signs
of unbelief, 15.
- Abraham accompanies these Divine
persons on their way to Sodom, 16;
- and that one
who is called Jehovah informs him of his purpose
to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, because of their
great wickedness, 17-21.
- The two former
proceed toward Sodom, while the latter (Jehovah)
remains with Abraham, 22.
- Abraham intercedes
for the inhabitants of those cities, entreating
the Lord to spare them provided fifty righteous
persons should be found in them, 23-25.
- The Lord grants this request, 26.
- He pleads
for the same mercy should only forty-five be found
there; which is also granted, 27, 28.
- He
pleads the same for forty, which is also granted,
29;
- for thirty, with the same success, 30;
- for
twenty, and receives the some gracious answer, 31;
- for ten, and the Lord assures him that should ten
righteous persons be found there, he will not
destroy the place, 32.
- Jehovah then departs, and
Abraham returns to his tent, 33.

Key "Quotable Quote"
"Moses here records the wonderful judgment of God, by which the wife of Lot was transformed into a statue of salt."
~ John Calvin
Analysis of chapter
Bible Background Commentary
Wesley's Explanatory Notes
I. It was found upon trial that Lot was very good, Genesis 19:1,2,3. and it did not appear that there were any more of the same character.
II. It was found that the Sodomites were very wicked, Genesis 19:4–11.
III. Special care was therefore taken for the securing of Lot and his family, Genesis 19:12-23.
IV. The ruin of Sodom, and of Lot's wife, Genesis 19:24-26. with a general repetition of the story, Genesis 19:27-29.
V. A foul sin that Lot was guilty of, in committing incest with his two daughters, Genesis 19:30-38.
J. Vernon McGee's Thru The Bible
THEME:
- I. The angels visit Lot, Genesis 19:1-20
- II. Destruction of the Cities of the Plain, Genesis 19:26-28
1) Chapter 18 was a picture of blessed Christian fellowship with God.
2) Now the picture changes:
3) We leave Hebron on the plains of Mamre where Abraham dwells and we go to the city of Sodom where Lot dwells.
4) In this chapter Lot leaves Sodom with his wife and two daughters, and Sodom and Gomorrah are destroyed.
5) Lot's wife turns to a pillar of salt, and then we have Lot's awful sin with his two daughters.
In chapter 19 we have a picture of that which is "the blasted life." Don't forget that this man Lot happens to be a righteous man. It is hard to believe that; if I had only this record in Genesis, I wouldn't believe it. But Simon Peter, in his epistle, says of Lot, ". . . that righteous man . . . vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds" (2 Peter 2:8). Lot lived in Sodom, but he never was happy there. It was a tragic day for him when he moved to Sodom, because he lost his family – he lost all of them if you look at the total picture. It is tragic.
Bible Exposition Commentary: Old Testament Genesis 18-19

A Wife for Isaac
Wesley's Explanatory Notes
Chapter Outline
The subjoining of Isaac's marriage to Sarah's funeral (with a particular reference to it, Genesis 24:67.) shews us, that as one generation passeth away, another generation comes; and thus the entail of human nature is preserved. Here is,
I. Abraham's care about the marrying of his son, and the charge he gave to his servant about it,
Genesis 24:1-9.
II. The servant's journey into Abraham's country to seek a wife for his young master among his own relations,
Genesis 24:10-14.
III. The kind providence which brought him acquainted with Rebekah, whose father was Isaac's cousin german,
Genesis 24:15-28.
IV. The treaty of marriage with her relations,
Genesis 24:29-49.
V. Their consent obtained,
Genesis 24:50-60.
VI. The happy meeting and marriage between Isaac and Rebekah,
Genesis 24:61-67.

and directs him how to personate his brother, and
by deceiving his father, obtain the blessing,

situation in reference to their father, 4-5;

attempts made by Laban to defraud him of his hire,

that he is now called to return to his own
country, 13.

departure, Leah and Rachel agree; and strengthen

VII. SUMMARY OF CHAPTER 34 [AC]
- Dinah, the daughter of Jacob and Leah, going out
to see the daughters of the land, is ravished by
Shechem, the son of Hamor, 1, 2.
- He
entreats his father to get her for him to wife, 3.
- Jacob and his sons hear of the indignity offered to
Dinah, 5-7.
- Hamor proposes the suit of Shechem to
Jacob and his sons, and offers them a variety of
advantages, 8-10.
- Shechem himself comes forward,
begs to have Dinah to wife, and offers dowry to
any extent, 11, 12.
- The sons of Jacob pretend
scruples of conscience to give their sister to
one who was uncircumcised; and require, as a
condition of this marriage, and of intermarriages
in general, that all the Shechemites should be
circumcised, 13-17.
- Hamor and Shechem
consent, 18, 19.
- They lay the business before the
elders of their city, dwell on the advantages of
a connection with Jacob and his family, and
propose to them the condition required by the sons of
Jacob, 20-23.
- The elders consent, and all the
males are circumcised, 24.
- While the Shechemites
are incapable of defending themselves, on the
third day after their circumcision, Simeon
and Levi, the brothers of Dinah, came
upon the city, slew all the males, sacked the
city, took the women and children captives, and
seized on all the cattle belonging to the
Shechemites, 25-29.
- Jacob is greatly displeased
and alarmed at this treachery and cruelty of his
sons, and lays before them the probable
consequences, 30.
- They endeavour to vindicate
their conduct, 31.

In this chapter we have an account of the posterity of Esau, who were from him, were called Edomites;

- 3. To shew the performance of the promise to Abraham, that he should be the father of many nations, and of that answer which Rebekah had from the oracle she consulted, Two nations are in thy womb; and of the blessing of Isaac, Thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth. Here are,
