Genesis 19 - 20

GenesisSteve Gregg
In Genesis 19-20, we see the story of Sodom and Gomorrah's destruction, highlighting the importance of hospitality and the judgment of wickedness in God's eyes. Lot's compromises and choices led to the loss of his family members and the moral corruption of his daughters. We also see Abraham make a mistake similar to one made in chapter 12 as he and Sarah are taken by Abimelech, cautioning against making uncharitable judgments about heathen people and reminding us that not every unbeliever is totally depraved. The birth of Isaac marks a new focus for the narrative in Genesis.
