Genesis 13:14

13:14 After Lot had departed, the Lord said to Abram,¹ “Look² from the place where you stand to the north, south, east, and west.

Genesis 14:15

Context
14:15 Then, during the night,³ Abram⁴ divided his forces⁵ against them and defeated them. He chased them as far as Hobah, which is north⁶ of Damascus.

¹tn Heb “and the Lord said to Abram after Lot separated himself from with him.” The disjunctive clause at the beginning of the verse signals a new scene.

²tn Heb “lift up your eyes and see.”

sn Look. Earlier Lot “looked up” (v. 10), but here Abram is told by God to do so. The repetition of the expression (Heb “lift up the eyes”) here underscores how the Lord will have the last word and actually do for Abram what Abram did for Lot – give him the land. It seems to be one of the ways that God rewards faith.

³tn The Hebrew text simply has “night” as an adverbial accusative.

⁴tn Heb “he”; the referent (Abram) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁵tn Heb “he divided himself…he and his servants.”

⁶tn Heb “left.” Directions in ancient Israel were given in relation to the east rather than the north.
