13 Ora, os homens de Sodoma eram extremamente perversos e pecadores contra o SENHOR.

Gênesis 13:13 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 13:13

But the men of Sodom [were] wicked
Which either he knew not, and so ignorantly made this bad choice, to take up his abode among such very wicked men, which occasioned a great deal of grief, trouble, and vexation to him; or if he knew it, the pleasing prospect of convenience for his cattle, and of enriching himself, was a temptation to him, and prevailed upon him to take such a step; and so Jarchi interprets it, "although" they were so, Lot was not restrained from dwelling among them: and sinners before the Lord exceedingly;
exceeding great sinners, guilty of the most notorious crimes, and addicted to the most scandalous and unnatural lusts that can be thought of; and these they committed openly and publicly in the sight of God, in the most daring and impudent manner, and in defiance of him, without any fear or shame. The Targum of Jonathan reckons up many of their sins, as defrauding of one another in their substance, sinning in their bodies, incest, unclean copulation, shedding of innocent blood, worshipping of idols, and rebelling against the name of the Lord; see ( Isaiah 3:9 ) ( Ezekiel 16:49 ) .

Gênesis 13:13 In-Context

11 Ló escolheu todo o vale do Jordão e partiu em direção ao leste. Assim os dois se separaram:

12 Abrão ficou na terra de Canaã, mas Ló mudou seu acampamento para um lugar próximo a Sodoma, entre as cidades do vale.

13 Ora, os homens de Sodoma eram extremamente perversos e pecadores contra o SENHOR.

14 Disse o SENHOR a Abrão, depois que Ló separou-se dele: “De onde você está, olhe para o norte, para o sul, para o leste e para o oeste:

15 toda a terra que você está vendo darei a você e à sua descendência para sempre.
