זוהר, וירא ט״זZohar, Vayera 16

Segment 1א׳

וַיָּבֹאוּ שְׁנֵי הַמַּלְאָכִים סְדוֹמָה בָּעֶרֶב וְגו'. אָמַר רַבִּי יוֹסֵי תָּא חֲזֵי מַה כְּתִיב לְעֵילָא וַיֵּלֶךְ יְיָ כַּאֲשֶׁר כִּלָּה לְדַבֵּר אֶל אַבְרָהָם. דְּהָא כֵּיוָן דְּאִתְפְּרַשׁ שְׁכִינְתָּא מֵאַבְרָהָם, וְאַבְרָהָם תָּב לְאַתְרֵיהּ, כְּדֵין וַיָּבֹאוּ שְׁנֵי הַמַּלְאָכִים סְדוֹמָה בָּעֶרֶב, דְּהָא חַד אִסְתַּלַּק בִּשְׁכִינְתָּא, וְאִשְׁתָּאֲרוּ אִנּוּן תְּרֵין.

AND THE TWO ANGELS CAME TO SODOM AT EVEN, ETC. R. Jose pointed out that the preceding verse, “And the Lord went his way as soon as he had left off speaking to Abraham”, indicates that only when the Shekinah departed from Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place, did “the two angels come to Sodom at eve”. (It says “two”, because one of the angels departed with the Shekinah, leaving only two.)

Segment 2ב׳

כֵּיוָן דְּחָמָא לוֹט לוֹן, רָהַט בַּתְרַיְיהוּ. מַאי טַעְמָא, וְכִי כָּל אִנּוּן דְּהֲווּ אַתְיָין אִיהוּ אָעִיל לוֹן לְבֵיתֵיהּ וְיָהִיב לוֹן לְמֵיכַל וּלְמִשְׁתֵּי וּבְנִי מָתָא הֵיךְ לָא קָטְלִין לֵיהּ, דְּהָא לִבְרַתֵּיהּ עֲבְדוּ דִינָא.

As soon as Lot saw them he ran after them. Why so? Did Lot, then, take into his house all wayfarers and offer them food and drink? Would not the townspeople have killed him, and meted out to him the same treatment as they did to his daughter?

Segment 3ג׳

וּמַאי הוּא. דִּבְרַתֵּיהּ דְּלוֹט יַהֲבַת פִּתָּא דְּנַהֲמָא לְחַד עַנְיָא, יָדְעוּ בָּהּ, שָׁפוּהָ דוּבְשָׁא וְאוֹתְבוּהָ בְּרִישׁ אִיגְרָא עַד דְּאֲכְלוּהָ צִרְעֵי.

(For Lot’s daughter once offered a piece of bread to a poor man, and when it was found out, the people of the town covered her body with honey, and left her thus exposed on the top of a roof until she was consumed by wasps.)
