ACC ~ 2 Peter 2 v7

GOD RESCUED LOT. CLEMENT OF ROME: By rescuing Lot the Lord made clear that he does not abandon those who hope in him but that he hands those who turn away over to punishment and torture. LETTER TO THE CORINTHIANS 11.1.

IT IS POSSIBLE TO AVOID DOING EVIL. HESYCHIUS: Peter adds the story of Lot to his other examples in order to teach us that it is possible to avoid doing evil and thus to escape from the punishment which they will receive. CATENA.

LOT UNABLE TO PUT RIGHT THE SODOMITES. BEDE: The evil words and deeds of the Sodomites were a daily agony for this righteous man, who saw what they were doing but was unable to put it right, though in spite of everything, he was able to keep himself pure. ON 2 PETER.
