Genesis 14:11 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 14:11

And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah
They entered these cities and pillaged them, and carried off everything valuable in them, that was portable or could be driven, as their cattle they did not burn these cities, nor take possession of them, and leave garrisons in them, which shows them to be petty princes that came for plunder, and to get an equivalent for nonpayment of tribute to one of them: and all their victuals, and went away;
all the meat and drink they could light of, with which they refreshed their troops, and then departed.
