Gen. 19:18      Gen. 19:20

Genesis 19:19

see that your servant has found favor (undeserved love – Hebr. chen) in your eyes, and you have shown great kindness (caring love – Hebr. chesed) to me by saving my life. I cannot [do not have time to] flee to the mountains, lest evil overtake me and I die.
[Lot negotiates with the chief angel in a similar way to Abraham with his guests, see Gen. 18:22–33. He wishes to flee to the small town of Zoar. Here, the Hebrew word chesed appears for the first time in the Old Testament. It means grace, caring love, and faithfulness. The word chen for mercy is also used here, but it is described in detail in Gen. 6:8. Chesed is the most common word for mercy in the Old Testament. It occurs 241 times. In total, there are five different roots that mean mercy in slightly different ways in Hebrew. Chesed is the type of grace that describes caring love and also faithfulness. It is grace that cares in a practical way, driven by genuine love that lasts over time. Chesed is a grace that never fails.]
