| Genesis 19:22 | *Make haste, and be saved there: because I cannot do any thing till thou go in thither. Therefore the name of that city was called Segor. Wisdom 10:6. | Segor. That is, a little one. (Challoner) --- In allusion to Lot's words, ver. 20. As it was small, fewer sinners would of course be contained in it. God had resolved to spare it, and therefore inspired Lot to pray for its preservation. (Menochius) --- Hence we may learn, how great a treasure and safeguard the just man is. (Haydock) |
