It was, therefore, not only necessary from motives of cleanliness, but also a very great refreshment, in so hot a country, to get the feet washed at the end of a day's journey; and this is the first thing that Abraham proposes. 19:2; 24:32; 43:24; 1Sa 25:41; Lu 7:44; Joh 13:5-15; 1Ti 5:10tree.Rest in the shade was the second requisite for the refreshment of a weary traveller.

1 Lot entertains two angels.4 The vicious Sodomites are smitten with blindness.12 Lot is warned, and in vain warns his sons-in-law.15 He is directed to flee with his family to the mountains, but obtains leave to go into Zoar.24 Sodom and Gomorrah are destroyed.26 Lot's wife becomes a pillar of salt.29 Lot dwells in a cave.31 The incestuous origin of Moab and Ammon. And there came two angels. Or, rather, "the two angels came," referring to those mentioned in the preceding chapter, and there called "men."
