Elyon (Most High) blesses Abraham for defeating King Chedorlaomer, ruler of Elam—present-day western Iran. Chedorlaomer warred with Sodom and nearby cities, which later thanked Abraham for intervening. Yet YHWH (Yahweh) later destroyed these cities, suggesting Elyon and YHWH were at odds.
This dynamic might explain Abraham's attempts to persuade Yahweh not to destroy Sodom. 🤔
