Welcome to my Hebrew reading & language series.

Genesis 19:18-22

Last week, Lot was ordered to escape before disaster befalls Sodom. Our reading today is continuing that same conversation with the messenger.

Lot asks if he can run to the small city near Sodom and the messenger grants his request. The messenger also states that he cannot begin to destroy Sodom until Lot is safe in the small city, which from that point on was called Zoar.

--little and Zoar - same letters--

All of the names in Hebrew mean something. Zoar means "little" - reading about times, people and places in Hebrew gives more depth and meaning to people's experiences as they name their children and encounter unknown places.

The story continues next week as we read on.

Thank you for visiting! Read with me as we unfold the story of Sodom as Lot entertains visitors. We also have a short clip from the Hebrew film dubbed in English. Click the video link below.
