Genesis 18:22
“And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the Lord.”
KJV
Read in Genesis 18Meaning
The men turn and go toward Sodom, while Abraham remains in the LORD's presence.
Read carefully
The verse sets the stage for intercession; textual and translation details about who stands before whom should be handled carefully rather than used for sweeping conclusions.
Reflection
Abraham does not simply watch events move toward judgment; he remains engaged and prepares to speak on behalf of justice.
