Kabbalah su Genesi 19:78

Rabbi Yosi and Rabbi Chiya said: The Holy One, blessed be He, established the right way for us; happy are those who delve into the Torah. They approached him and kissed him. Rabbi Yosi applied to him the verse: "And all your children shall be taught of Hashem, and great shall be the peace of your children" (Isaiah 54:13). When they reached a field, they all sat down. That man asked what changed when the verse says, "And Hashem rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah" (Gen. 19:24), (i.e. why was the term Elohim not used)? And what changed during the Great Flood, when the term 'Elohim' is used, while the term Hashem (is not used at all)?

It says in Beresheet Rabbah: Rabbi Simlai said: Wherever you find lust, an epidemic visits the world and slays both good and bad. Rabbi Azariah and Rabbi Yehuda son of Rabbi Simone said in the name of Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi: The Creator is long-suffering for everything besides immorality, as it says “The sons of God saw the daughters of men” (Genesis 6:2) which is followed by, “And the Lord said I will blot out man (Genesis 6:8).” Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi said in Rabbi Pedaya’s name: That whole night Lot prayed for mercy for the Sodomites, and they [the angels] would have heeded him, but as soon as they [the Sodomites] demanded “Bring them out unto us, that we may know them (Genesis 19:5)—for intercourse— they [the angels] said, “Who else is here” (Genesis 19:12) meaning, to plead in their defense, from now on you are no longer permitted to plead in their defense.

Come and see: Good advice for people. When a person lies on his bed at night and goes to sleep, he should wholeheartedly accept upon himself the heavenly Kingdom, and he should quickly prepare to return his entrusted soul to Him. Then he shall be immediately spared from all bad diseases and evil spirits, and they shall have no power over him.

And this is the secret: "And E-lohim tested Avraham" (Gen. 22:1) that the name E-lohim gave its banner [nes] in the hand of Avraham whose aspect is E-l. And this is the secret of "and he took in his hand the fire and the knife" (Genesis 22:6): if Avraham had not taken in his hand the strengths of Yitzchak, which are the fire and the knife, the whole creation would not have been able to stand in front of 'the fear of Yitzchak'. And this is the secret of 'and abundant in mercy' (Exodus 34:6 and Numbers 14:18) of the aspect of Avraham, that diminished the aspect 'fear of Yitzchak' and took in his hand the fire and the knife. And this is why the aspect of Avraham is called Gedulah, because it is greater than Gevurah, and this is the secret that He said to Avraham "I will make your name great" (Genesis 12:2) and this is the secret of "because a great E-l is YHV"H and king over all E-lohim" (Psalms 95:3) - and therefore the banner of Yitzchak does not get out until the banner of Avraham has finished teaching all the merit. And this is the secret of "and Y"Y went, after He finished speaking with Avraham, and Avraham returned to his place" (Genesis 18:33) - and what is written after? "And it was, when E-lohim destroyed the two cities of the plain" (Genesis 19:29). Even though E-lohim destroyed, when He remembered Avraham, who is the secret of the aspect E-l, He saved Lot, and this is what is written: "And it was that, when E-lohim destroyed the cities of the Plain, E-lohim remembered Avraham and sent Lot away from the midst of the upheaval" - truly from the middle of the upheaval He saved him. And the reason [is] because Avraham took in his hand the fire and the knife, and therefore Avraham saved many times [other people] even though the end of the judgment was death, because this is the secret of "abundant in mercy", and this is the secret of "compassionate and gracious" of the aspects called as "Avraham". And after Avraham took with His permission the fire and the knife, which are the weapons of war of Yitzchak, who is the aspect of E-lohim, the banner of E-lohim does not come out to complete the punishment until Avraham has finished teaching/exposing the merit of the one being judged. And when he does not find merit, the aspect of Avraham joins [into the aspect of E-lohim/Yitzchak] and then E-lohim, which is the aspect of Yitzchak, completes the punishment and the judgment, as it says "and Avraham returned to his place," and after this "And it was that, when E-lohim destroyed the cities of the Plain". And you should know that, once Avraham took the fire and the knife, E-lohim cannot act of punish until Avraham agrees with the judgment. And this is the secret of "And Avraham took the fire and the knife and the two of them walked together". "And the two of them walked together", obviously, since the aspect of Yitzchak cannot walk without the permission of the aspect of Avraham, and its command and its agreement. And this is the secret of "God of Avraham, God of Yitzchak AND God of Ya'akov" (Exodus 3:9) and it is not written AND God of Yitzchak, as it is written "and God of Ya'akov", so that greatness is not divided to the aspect of Yitzchak, and so that the aspect of "Fear of Isaac" is always under "Kindness of Avraham." And this is the secret of "and the two of them walked together", that the aspect of Yitzchak does not have permission to walk unless the aspect of Avraham has exposed the merit, because otherwise the aspect of Yitzchak would destroy the world, and this is the secret of 'And E-lohim tested Avraham." And you should know that Avraham bound Yitzchak up so that the aspect of Yitzchak would be tied up by its hands and feet, and would be conquered, under the aspect of Avraham.
