Genesis 14:1-4
And It Came To Pass In The Days Of Amraphel, King Of Shinar, Arioch, King Of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, King Of Elam, And Tidal, King Of Nations (Four Kings); THAT, THEY Made War – With Bera, King Of Sodom, Birsha, King Of Gomorrah, Shinab, King Of Admah, Shemeber, King Of Zeboiim, And The King Of Bela (That Is, Zoar)! All These, Joined Together In The Valley Of Siddim (That Is, The Salt Sea)! Twelve Years They Served Chedorlaomer, And In The Thirteenth Year – THEY Rebelled!
THE KINGS VERSUS THE GIANTS!
Genesis 14:5-7
In The Fourteenth Year, (King) Chedorlaomer, And The Kings, That WERE With Him Came And ATTACKED – The Rephaim In Ashteroth Karnaim, The Zuzim In Ham, The Emim In Shaveh Kiriathaim, And The Horites In Their Mountain Of Seir, As Far As El Paran, Which IS – By The Wilderness! THEN, They Turned Back, And Came To En Mishpat (That IS, Kadesh), And ATTACKED All The Country Of The Amalekites, And Also, The Amorites Who Dwelt In Hazezon Tamar!
LOT’S CAPTIVITY AND RESCUE (By Abram And Company)!
Genesis 14:8-17
And The King Of Sodom (Bera), The King Of Gomorrah (Birsha), The King Of Admah (Shinab), The King Of Zeboiim (Shemeber), And The King Of Bela (That IS, Zoar) Went Out And Joined Together In Battle In The Valley Of Siddim – AGAINST Chedorlaomer, King Of Elam, Tidal, King Of Nations, Amraphel, King Of Shinar, And Arioch, King Of Ellasar — Four Kings AGAINST Five! Now, The Valley Of Siddim WAS FULL OF Asphalt Pits; And The Kings Of Sodom (Bera) And Gomorrah (Birsha) FLED; SOME Fell – There, And The Remainder Fled To The Mountains! THEN, They Took ALL The Goods Of Sodom And Gomorrah, And ALL Their Provisions, And Went Their Way! They Also Took Lot, Abram’s Brother’s Son, Who Dwelt In Sodom, And His Goods, And Departed!
THEN, One Who Had ESCAPED Came And Told Abram, The Hebrew, For He (Abram) Dwelt By The Terebinth Trees Of Mamre, The Amorite, Brother Of Eshcol, And Brother Of Aner; And They WERE Allies With Abram! Now, When Abram Heard That His Brother (His Fellow Hebrew, Lot) Was Taken Captive, He (Abram) Armed His Three Hundred And Eighteen Trained SERVANTS, Who Were Born In His Own House, And Went In Pursuit, As Far As Dan! He (Abram) Divided His Forces Against Them By Night; And He (Abram) And His Servants ATTACKED Them, And Pursued Them, As Far As Hobah, Which IS North (On The Left Hand) Of Damascus! SO, He (Abram) Brought Back ALL The Goods, And Also, Brought Back His Brother (His Fellow Hebrew) Lot, And His Goods, As Well As, The Women And The People!
And The King Of Sodom (Bera) Went Out To Meet Him (Abram) At The Valley Of Shaveh (That IS, The King’s Valley), After His (Abram’s) Return From The Defeat (The Striking) Of Chedorlaomer, And The Kings, Who WERE With Him!
Genesis 14:18-20
THEN MELCHIZEDEK, KING OF SALEM, BROUGHT OUT BREAD AND WINE; HE (Melchizedek) WAS THE PRIEST OF GOD MOST HIGH! AND HE (Melchizedek) BLESSED HIM (Abram), AND SAID: “BLESSED BE ABRAM OF GOD MOST HIGH, POSSESSOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH; AND BLESSED BE GOD MOST HIGH, WHO HAS DELIVERED YOUR ENEMIES INTO YOUR HAND!” And He (Abram) Gave Him (Melchizedek) A Tithe (One-Tenth) Of All!
Genesis 14:21-24
Now, The King Of Sodom (Bera) Said To Abram, “Give Me The Persons (The Souls), And Take The Goods For Yourself!” BUT, Abram Said To The King Of Sodom, “I Have Raised My Hand To THE LORD, GOD MOST HIGH, The Possessor Of Heaven And Earth; That, I WILL TAKE NOTHING, From A Thread To A Sandal Strap, And That, I Will NOT Take Anything That IS Yours; Lest, YOU Should Say, ‘I Have Made Abram Rich’— Except, ONLY What The Young Men Have Eaten, And The Portion Of The Men Who Went With Me: Aner, Eshcol, And Mamre; Let Them Take Their Portion!”
A Few Notes About “Giants”!
Numbers 13:33
“THERE, We Saw The Giants (The Nephilim) – (The Descendants Of Anak Came From The Giants); And We Were Like Grasshoppers (As Mere Insects) In Our Own Sight, And So, We Were In Their Sight!”
Deuteronomy 2:10-11 & 20-21
The Emim Had Dwelt THERE – In Times Past; A People As Great, And Numerous, And Tall, As The Anakim! They (The Emim) Were Also Regarded As Giants (The Rephaim), Like The Anakim, BUT The Moabites Call Them – Emim! THAT, Was Also Regarded As A Land Of Giants (The Rephaim); Giants Formerly Dwelt THERE! BUT, The Ammonites Call Them – Zamzummim (The Zuzim); A People As Great, And Numerous, And Tall As The Anakim!
Deuteronomy 9:2
“A People Great And Tall, The Descendants Of The Anakim, Whom YOU Know, AND OF WHOM, YOU HEARD IT SAID, ‘Who Can Stand Before The Descendants Of Anak?’”
Amos 2:9
“YET, IT WAS I (GOD Almighty), WHO DESTROYED THE AMORITE BEFORE THEM (The Children Of Israel); WHOSE HEIGHT, WAS LIKE, THE HEIGHT OF THE CEDARS; AND HE WAS – AS STRONG AS THE OAKS; YET, I (GOD Almighty) DESTROYED HIS FRUIT ABOVE, AND HIS ROOTS BENEATH!”
It’s Time To Get Jesus To People, And People To Jesus, As Quickly As We Possibly Can; BEFORE, IT’S TOO LATE – FOR THEM! Amen.
