TSK - GENESIS 18

  1  The Lord appears to Abraham, who entertains angels.
 9  Sarah is reproved for laughing at the promise of a son.
16  The destruction of Sodom is revealed to Abraham.
23  Abraham makes intercession for the inhabitants.


VERSE 1
- appeared.
   * Ge 15:1; 17:1-3,22; 26:2; 48:3 Ex 4:1 2Ch 1:7 Ac 7:2
- Mamre.
   * Ge 13:18; 14:13
- 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.


VERSE 2 
 - And he.
   * Jud 13:3,9 Heb 13:2
- three.
   * :22; 19:1 Heb 13:2 1Pe 4:9
- he ran.
   * Ro 12:13
- bowed.
   * Ge 23:7; 33:3-7; 43:26,28; 44:14 Ru 2:10 2Ki 2:15


VERSE 3 
 - favor.
   * Ge 32:5


VERSE 4 
 - 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.

   * Ge 19:2; 24:32; 43:24 1Sa 25:41 Lu 7:44 Joh 13:5-15 1Ti 5:10
- tree.
  Rest in the shade was the second requisite for the refreshment
  of a weary traveller.


VERSE 5 
 - And I.
   * Jud 6:18; 13:15 Mt 6:11
- bread.
  This was the third requisite, and is introduced in its proper
  order; as eating immediately after exertion or fatigue is very
  unwholesome.

- comfort.  Heb. stay.
   * Jud 19:5 Ps 104:15 Isa 3:1
- are ye come.  Heb. ye have passed.
   * Ge 19:8; 33:10

VERSE 21 
 - 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.

VERSE 22 
 - the men.
   * :2; 19:1
- 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."
