Avraham continues his passionate plea for the people of sodom. The angels come to sodom and lot invites them to come to his house and offers them food and lodging. The people of sodom surround the house and demand that lot give them his guests. Angels tell lot of their mission to destoy the city and tell him to take his family and possessions and they will escort him out of the city before they destoy it. They are told not to look back at the destruction but lot's wife does and is turned into a pillar of salt. We begin the story of lot and his two daughters.
