This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_19:7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
Ver. 7. Do not so wickedly.] They were the first that fell into this foul sin, and were therefore worthily hanged up in gibbets by God for a terror to others; and besides, they "suffer the vengeance of eternal fire". {Jdg_1:7} The Pope pretends to be Christ’s vicar, and presumes to assume the title of Holiness. But how far he is from expressing God to the world appears by his, if not committing, yet conniving at, this detestable sin of sodomy … God hath delivered up these Papagans (as he did those Pagans, Rom_1:24) to reprobate sense, to vile affections, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves, for that they have worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator. {Rom_1:24-26} Hence it is that Rome is called Sodom in the Revelation. {Rev_11:8}
