Part 2 of 2 God had already given his word to Abram that he was going to bless him, so God showed Abram mercy, because he did err by taking Lot with him. I am going to deduce here that Abram must have loved Lot his nephew this is why he allowed him to come with him. However, when God tells you that you have to leave family, it hurts but sometimes you have to in order to do the work of God or to be blessed. The reason I came to the conclusion of the care that Abram had for Lot, if I can say it like this, is because God was thinking whether or not to hide what he was about to do to Sodom where Lot had took up residence from Abram. Because he knew that Abram would go after Lot and try to hinder the LORD from doing justice and judgment. So then the LORD struck up a dialogue between him and Abram. At the end of the conversation with 10 being the judgment number of God. The LORD went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham and Abraham returned unto his place , Genesis 18 17 thru 33.
