2274. Verse 30 And he said, Let not now my Lord be incensed, and I will speak; perhaps thirty will be found there. And He said, I will not do it if I find thirty there.
'And he said, Let not now my Lord be incensed, and I will speak' means deep concern over the state of the human race. 'Perhaps thirty will be found there' means some existence of conflict. 'And He said, I will not do it if I find thirty there' means that they will be saved.
