(Why these two things?)

Genesis 19:2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.

(Why did the angels say that they would abide in the street all night?

Was that their original plan?

Or did they say that, in order for Lot to invite them to his house?)

Genesis 19:3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.

(Why the unleavened bread?

Was it because there was no time for the bread to rise?)

Exodus 12:33 And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We be all dead men.

  39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not tarry, neither had they prepared for themselves any victual.

Deuteronomy 16:3 Thou shalt eat no leavened bread with it; seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread therewith, even the bread of affliction; for thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life.

(Or was it something done at that time?

Or does it have to do with anything else?

Possibly to show a contrast with the others of Sodom?)

Hosea 7:4 They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.

(Similar to, but clearly not the same as what Paul mentioned?)

I Corinthians 5:6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

  7a Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened.

  8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

(If so, that only now, in the church age, could we compare these, and find relevant application for us, today?)
