And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there and they that remained fled to the mountain.
In Genesis 14:10, we witness a scene of chaos and destruction as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah are overtaken by their enemies and forced to flee. The vale of Siddim is described as being full of slimepits, adding to the danger and difficulty of the situation. As the kings attempt to escape, some of them fall in the slimepits, while others manage to make it to the safety of the mountain.
This passage serves as a reminder of the consequences of sin and disobedience. The kings of Sodom and Gomorrah had allowed wickedness to flourish in their cities, and now they were facing the repercussions of their actions. It also highlights the importance of seeking refuge in God during times of trouble, as those who were able to reach the mountain were spared from the fate of those who fell in the slimepits.
