Genesis 19:1-29 Sodom and Gomorrah Destroyed
Lot was at the gateway when the 2 angels arrived. He invited the angel to his house to wash his feet and spend the night. They insisted on staying the night in the square. Lot would not take no for an answer so they did go with him. They all ate dinner. After dinner all the men of the city surrounded the house. The men wanted Lot to send the men out to have their way with them. Lot did not want to send them out so he offered his daughter instead. Once back inside the angels made all the men go blind. The angels told him to get all that is his and get out of town.
Lot tried to get the men that were to marry his daughter but they did not believe him. Lot left town with his wife and two daughters. God showed mercy on Lot and his family. They were told to flee and don’t look back. Lot did not want to flee to the mountains so the angels allowed him to flee to a nearby town.
Once he had gotten to the town the Lord sent burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah. When Lot and his wife were fleeing Lots wife looked back and became a pillar of salt.
The next morning Abraham saw what was done to Sodom and Gomorrah.
