Genesis 14

Genesis 14

In Chapter 14, Lot pitched his tents near Sodom upon arrival. We are given an account of the first war. The kings of corresponding cities on the plain of Jordan were invaded by four other Kings: Shinar, Ellasar, Elam, and King Tidal. This resulted in a revolution. The Kings served Chedorlaomer for 12 years before rebelling in the 13th year. King Chedorlaomer sought a victory. All the kings were invading from Mesopotamia.
