Context — Melchizedek Blesses Abram
20and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of everything.
21The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, but take the goods for yourself.”
22But Abram replied to the king of Sodom, “I have raised my hand to the LORD God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,
23that I will not accept even a thread, or a strap of a sandal, or anything that belongs to you, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich.’ 24I will accept nothing but what my men have eaten and the share for the men who went with me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. They may take their portion.”Cross References

You did not tell me, so I have not heard about it until today.” So Abraham brought sheep and cattle and gave them to Abimelech, and the two men made a covenant. Abraham separated seven ewe lambs from the flock, and Abimelech asked him, “Why have you set apart these seven ewe lambs?” He replied, “You are to accept the seven ewe lambs from my hand as my witness that I dug this well.” So that place was called Beersheba, because it was there that the two of them swore an oath. |

Genesis 14:22 Summary
[In Genesis 14:22, Abram is making a promise to God that he will not take anything that belongs to the king of Sodom, because he wants to honor God and show that his trust is in Him, not in earthly wealth or power (as seen in Proverbs 3:5-6). By saying 'I have raised my hand to the LORD God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth', Abram is saying that he is committed to following and obeying God, no matter what. This is an example for us to follow, as we are called to trust and obey God in our own lives (Romans 12:1-2).]
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to 'raise my hand to the LORD' as Abram did in Genesis 14:22?
Raising one's hand to the LORD is a gesture of oath-making or swearing, as seen in Deuteronomy 32:40, where God Himself lifts His hand to heaven to swear an oath. In this context, Abram is making a solemn promise to the LORD God Most High.
Why did Abram address the king of Sodom as he did in this verse?
Abram addressed the king of Sodom in this manner to establish that his allegiance and loyalty belong to the LORD God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth, rather than to any earthly king or authority, as seen in Psalm 83:18.
What is the significance of Abram referring to God as 'Creator of heaven and earth'?
By referring to God as 'Creator of heaven and earth', Abram is acknowledging God's sovereignty and power over all creation, as stated in Genesis 1:1, and recognizing that God is the one who has given him victory and wealth.
Reflection Questions
- What are some areas in my life where I need to acknowledge God's sovereignty and power, just as Abram did in this verse?
- How can I, like Abram, demonstrate my loyalty and allegiance to God in the face of earthly pressures and temptations?
- What does it mean for me to 'raise my hand to the LORD' in my own life, and what kind of promises or commitments am I making to Him?

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Genesis 14:22

Trapp's Commentary on Genesis 14:22
Genesis 14:22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,Ver. 22. I have lifted up my hand.] A swearing gesture. Neither doth he this rashly, but for very good reason first, that by this oath, as by a buckler, he might fence himself against all covetous desires of the spoil; secondly, to show that he did seriously remit of that which was his right, and went not to war for wages; thirdly, hereby to profess his faith and religion in opposition to their superstitious vanities, &c. The possessor of heaven and earth.] The true and rightful proprietary, whose tenants-at-pleasure we all are, as Philo from this text well observeth. And here take notice how Melchizedek and Abram concur in the very terms of professing their faith, "The most high God, possessor of heaven and earth." Whereunto Abram adds "Jehovah," by which name Melchizedek haply knew not God as yet; like as Apollos was ignorant of many needful truths, till better instructed by Aquila and Priscilla.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Genesis 14:22
Verse 22. I have lift up mine hand] The primitive mode of appealing to God, and calling him to witness a particular transaction; this no doubt generally obtained among the faithful till circumcision, the sign of the covenant, was established. After this, in swearing, the hand was often placed on the circumcised part; see Genesis 24:2; Genesis 24:9.
Cambridge Bible on Genesis 14:22
22. I have lift up mine hand] i.e. I have sworn, taken an oath with a gesture, symbolizing the appeal to God. Cf. Deuteronomy 32:40; Daniel 12:7. the Lord, God Most High] i.e. Jehovah El Elyon. The LXX and Syriac Peshitto omit “Jehovah.” The Sam. reads ha-Elohim for “Jehovah.” Abram takes his oath in the name of the God of Melchizedek whom a later scribe probably identified with Jehovah.
Whedon's Commentary on Genesis 14:22
22. I have lifted up mine hand — A solemn form of making oath before God. Unto the Lord, the most high God — Unto Jehovah El Elion.
