Avraham's Prayer for Sedom
Exegetical Approaches
Everyone Saved
These commentators agree that Avraham wanted all of the people in Sedom to be saved. But, they disagree about who Avraham was actually praying for:
Righteous and Sinners Saved
Avraham was praying for everyone in Sedom to be saved, both the righteous and the sinners.
"הַאַף תִּסְפֶּה צַדִּיק עִם רָשָׁע"
"הַאַף תִּסְפֶּה וְלֹא תִשָּׂא לַמָּקוֹם"
Collective Punishment
What happened at the end?
Was Avraham's Prayer Accepted?
Was Lot Righteous?
Why does Hashem tell Avraham about Sedom?
Just Sinners Saved
Avraham was sure that Hashem was going to save the righteous so he was only praying that the sinners will be saved.
