Audio Bible Context The Coming of the Kingdom…27People were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all. 28It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.… Cross References Genesis 19:24-25 Then the LORD rained down sulfur and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the LORD out of the heavens. / Thus He destroyed these cities and the entire plain, including all the inhabitants of the cities and everything that grew on the ground. Matthew 24:37-39 As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. / For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. / And they were oblivious until the flood came and swept them all away. So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man. 2 Peter 2:6-8 if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction, reducing them to ashes as an example of what is coming on the ungodly; / and if He rescued Lot, a righteous man distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless / (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— Jude 1:7 In like manner, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in sexual immorality and pursued strange flesh, are on display as an example of those who sustain the punishment of eternal fire. Genesis 6:5-7 Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time. / And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. / So the LORD said, “I will blot out man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—every man and beast and crawling creature and bird of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.” Genesis 18:20-21 Then the LORD said, “The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great. Because their sin is so grievous, / I will go down to see if their actions fully justify the outcry that has reached Me. If not, I will find out.” Genesis 19:12-17 Then the two men said to Lot, “Do you have anyone else here—a son-in-law, your sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here, / because we are about to destroy this place. For the outcry to the LORD against its people is so great that He has sent us to destroy it.” / So Lot went out and spoke to the sons-in-law who were pledged in marriage to his daughters. “Get up,” he said. “Get out of this place, for the LORD is about to destroy the city!” But his sons-in-law thought he was joking. ... Ezekiel 16:49-50 Now this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed, and complacent; they did not help the poor and needy. / Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before Me. Therefore I removed them, as you have seen. Isaiah 1:9-10 Unless the LORD of Hosts had left us a few survivors, we would have become like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah. / Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; listen to the instruction of our God, you people of Gomorrah! Jeremiah 23:14 And among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible thing: They commit adultery and walk in lies. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one turns his back on wickedness. They are all like Sodom to Me; the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.” Romans 9:29 It is just as Isaiah foretold: “Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah.” Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in godly fear built an ark to save his family. By faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith. 1 Thessalonians 5:3 While people are saying, “Peace and security,” destruction will come upon them suddenly, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. Revelation 11:8 Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city—figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where their Lord was also crucified. Deuteronomy 29:23 All its soil will be a burning waste of sulfur and salt, unsown and unproductive, with no plant growing on it, just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in His fierce anger. Treasury of Scripture Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; Genesis 13:13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly. Genesis 18:20,21 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; … Genesis 19:4-15 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: … Jump to Previous Ate Bought Builded Building Built Buying Drank Drinking Eat Eating Feasting Likewise Manner Planted Planting Selling Sold Time Trading True.

Jesus teaches to avoid occasions of offense;3. and to forgive one another. 5. The power of faith. 6. How we are bound to God. 11. Jesus heals ten lepers. 22. Of the kingdom of God, and the coming of the Son of Man. It was the same in the days of Lot: This phrase refers to the time of Lot, Abraham's nephew, as recorded in Genesis 18-19. The days of Lot were marked by moral decay and rampant sin, particularly in the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. This comparison highlights the suddenness of divine judgment and the obliviousness of the people to their impending doom. The reference to Lot serves as a warning to be vigilant and prepared for the coming of the Son of Man, as the people in Lot's time were unaware of the judgment about to befall them. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. Persons / Places / Events 1. LotA righteous man living in Sodom, Lot is a key figure in the account of Genesis 19. He is Abraham's nephew and is known for his hospitality and eventual rescue from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. 2. Sodom A city known for its wickedness and eventual destruction by God due to its sinfulness. It serves as a symbol of moral decay and divine judgment. 3. Days of Lot This refers to the period when Lot lived in Sodom, characterized by rampant immorality and indifference to God’s impending judgment. 4. Eating and Drinking, Buying and Selling, Planting and Building These activities symbolize normal, everyday life, indicating that people were living without awareness or concern for the coming judgment. Teaching Points Awareness of JudgmentJust as in the days of Lot, people today can become consumed with daily life, neglecting the reality of God's impending judgment. Believers are called to live with an awareness of spiritual realities. Righteous Living in a Corrupt World Lot's example challenges Christians to maintain righteousness and godliness even when surrounded by moral decay. Urgency of the Gospel The suddenness of Sodom's destruction underscores the urgency of sharing the Gospel. Believers should be proactive in witnessing to others about salvation through Christ. Avoiding Complacency The routine activities of life can lead to spiritual complacency. Christians are encouraged to remain vigilant and spiritually alert. Trust in God's Deliverance Just as God delivered Lot, He is faithful to deliver those who trust in Him. Believers can find assurance in God's protection and provision.(28) Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot.--The illustration does not occur in the otherwise parallel passage of Matthew 24:26-27, but was naturally suggested by our Lord's frequent reference to the Cities of the Plain (Luke 10:12; Matthew 10:15; Matthew 11:23); The allusion to Lot in 2Peter 2:7, may perhaps be traced to the impression made on the Apostle by this revival of the history.
