Notes from Genesis 14

We have four things in the story of this chapter.

I. A war with the king of Sodom and his allies (v. 1-11).
II. The captivity of Lot in that war (v. 12).
III. Abram's rescue of Lot from that captivity, with the victory he obtained over the conquerors (v. 13-16).
IV. Abram's return from the expedition (v. 17), with an account of what passed,
1. Between him and the king of Salem (v. 18-20).
2. Between him and the king of Sodom (v. 21-24). So that here we have that promise to Abram in part fulfilled, that God would make his name great.
