2436. Verse 22 Make haste, escape to it, for I cannot do anything until you come to it. Therefore he called the name of the city Zoar.

'Make haste, escape to it' means that he should remain in that position because he could not go further. 'For I cannot do anything until you come to it' means that before judgement is effected on the evil those with the affection for truth have to be saved. 'Therefore he called the name of the city Zoar' means the affection for truth.
