Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types [2]
Genesis 13:10 (c) The word means "a rebellious people" and may be taken as a type of the people of the world who refuse and reject Christ and His Word and prefer to live in their sins and iniquities. Their judgment is assured.
Deuteronomy 32:32 (a) The Lord applies this terrible name to the nation of Israel when they turned away from His love and grace to worship idols, and to live in sin. Since they were living like the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah, the Lord applies that name to them as being most appropriate.
