Genesis 13

Treated in 8 passages across the library.

  • 13:10 Lot looked out over the Jordan plain and saw water everywhere, all the way to Zoar, as in the garden of the LORD or the land of Egypt. (That was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.) 2
  • 13:11 So Lot chose the whole Jordan plain for himself and moved off to the east. The two of them parted. 2
  • 13:12 Abram remained in Canaan; Lot settled among the towns of the plain and moved his camp as far as Sodom. 2
  • 13:14 After Lot had gone, the LORD said to Abram, "Raise your eyes and look out from where you stand, to the north and south, east and west. 2
  • 13:15 I am giving you all the land you can see, to you and your descendants for all time. 2
  • 13:9 The whole land is open to you. Let us go our separate ways. You take the left and I will take the right, or you take the right and I will take the left." 1
  • 13:13 The people of Sodom, however, were evil and grievous sinners against the LORD. 1
