Genesis19:5
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them .
Either know who they are: Or rather abuse them, as Lots answer explains it, and so that word is used, Gen. 4. 1. N[illegible: 1+ letters]b. 31. 17. Iudg. 19. 22. And for the sin here committed see Levit. 18. 22. and 20. 13. Rom. 1. 26, 27. 1 C[illegible: 1+ letters]r 6. 9. Iud[illegible: 1+ letters] v[illegible: 1+ letters]r. [illegible: 1+ letters]. They openly and impudently profess their wicked intention, for which they are branded, Isa. 3. 9. and this intention of theirs is the more probable, because of the great beauty which it is likely was in those bodies which the Angels assumed, whereby their Lust was more inflamed.
