Génesis 19:13 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 19:13

For we will destroy this place
Or "we are destroying it" {p}, are about to do it, and will quickly and immediately do it: because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord;
the cry of the sins of the inhabitants of it, which were many, and openly, and daringly committed, and reached to heaven, and called for immediate vengeance and punishment: and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it;
by which they discovered themselves to be angels, and what their business was, to destroy Sodom; and which confutes the notion of the Jews, that they were sent on different errands; whereas it is clear from hence, these two were sent to do one and the same thing; (See Gill on Genesis 18:2).

Génesis 19:13 In-Context

11 Y a los hombres que estaban a la entrada de la casa los hirieron con ceguera desde el menor hasta el mayor, de manera que se cansaban tratando de hallar la entrada.
12 Entonces los dos hombres dijeron a Lot: ¿A quién más tienes aquí? A tus yernos, a tus hijos, a tus hijas y quienquiera que tengas en la ciudad, sácalos de este lugar;
13 porque vamos a destruir este lugar, pues su clamor ha llegado a ser tan grande delante del SEÑOR, que el SEÑOR nos ha enviado a destruirlo.
14 Y salió Lot y habló a sus yernos que iban a casarse con sus hijas, y dijo: Levantaos, salid de este lugar porque el SEÑOR destruirá la ciudad. Pero a sus yernos les pareció que bromeaba.
15 Y al amanecer, los ángeles apremiaban a Lot, diciendo: Levántate, toma a tu mujer y a tus dos hijas que están aquí, para que no seáis destruidos en el castigo de la ciudad.
