Back to Through The Bible


CHAPTER 18: THE LORD VISITS ABRAHAM

v.13,17 When LORD is written with all capital letters, it signifies the Hebrew Yaweh (YHVH) is used in the text. The Jews do not pronounce His holy name.

v.22 The men (angels) went on to Sodom, but the Lord (Jesus, since this was a theophany) stayed with Abraham.

v.23-32 The concept that the Lord would not destroy the righteous with the wicked was argued by Abraham as the "right" way to act. According to this concept, God will not destroy His Church in the tribulation, but will take it out before His judgment begins, as He removed Lot from Sodom.
