The patriarch was sitting in the door of his tent during the heat of the day, when suddenly three men appeared before him, standing under a tree. Abraham went out to meet the men, prepared a meal for them and visited with them.
Ang patriyaka ay nakaupo sa pintuan ng kanyang tolda sa panahon ng kainitan ng araw, nang biglaang may tatlong lalake na nagpakita sa kanya, nakatayo sa ilalim ng punong kahoy. Lumakad si Abraham para salubongin sila, ipinaghanda ng makakain at nakipamisita sa kanila.
