Genesis 18:1-33

18:1

appeared <07200> [appeared.]

Mamre <04471> [Mamre.]

sitting <03427> [and he sat.]

In these verses we have a delightful picture of genuine and primitive hospitality: a venerable father sits at the tent door, not only to enjoy the current of refreshing air, but that if he saw any weary and exhausted travellers, he might invite them to rest and refresh themselves during the heat of the day, and the same custom still continues in the east. It was not the custom, nor was there any necessity, for strangers to knock at the door, or to speak first, but to stand till they were invited.


18:2

looked <05375> [And he.]

three <07969> [three.]

ran <07323> [he ran.]

bowed <07812> [bowed.]


18:3

favor <02580> [favour.]


18:4

wash ... feet <07272 07364> [wash your feet.]

In those ancient times, shoes such as ours, were not in use; and the foot was protected only with sandals or soles, fastened round the foot with straps. 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.

tree <06086> [tree.]

Rest in the shade was the second requisite for the refreshment of a weary traveller.


18:5

get <03947> [And I.]

food <03899> [bread.]

This was the third requisite, and is introduced in its proper order; as eating immediately after exertion or fatigue is very unwholesome.

18:20

outcry <02201> [the cry.]

sin <02403> [sin.]


18:21

go down <03381> [I will go down.]

This is spoken figuratively; and as the Jewish writers speak, according to the language of men. So eyes, ears, hands, and other members of the body are attributed to God, for effecting those things which men cannot accomplish without these members.

see <07200> [see.]

know <03045> [I will know.]


18:22

<0582> [the men.]

standing <05975> [stood.]

The two, whom we suppose to have been created angels, departed at this time; and accordingly two entered Sodom at evening: while the one, called Jehovah throughout the chapter, continued with Abraham, who "stood yet before the Lord." --Scott.

On the practice of purchasing wives, De La Roque says, "Properly speaking, a young man who would marry must purchase his wife; and fathers among the Arabs are never so happy as when they have many daughters. They form part of the riches of the house. Accordingly, when a young man would treat with a person whose daughter he is inclined to marry, he says to him, 'Will you give me your daughter for fifty sheep, for six camels, or for a dozen cows?' according to the rank of her family, and the circumstances of him who desires to marry her."

"The quantity of these insects," says a French author,"is incredible to all who have not themselves witnessed their astonishing numbers; the whole earth is covered with them for the space of several leagues. The noise they make in browsing on the trees and herbage may be heard at a great distance, and resembles that of an army in secret. Wherever their myriads spread, the verdure of the country disappears; trees and plants, stripped of their leaves and reduced to their naked boughs and stems, cause the dreary image of winter to succeed in an instant to the rich scenery of spring. When these clouds of locusts take their flight, to surmount any obstacles or to traverse more rapidly a desert soil, the heavens may literally be said to be obscured by them."
