2282. Verse 32 And he said, Let not now my Lord be incensed, and I will speak just once more; perhaps ten will be found there. And He said, I will not destroy it for the sake of the ten.
'He said, Let not now my Lord be incensed, and I will speak just once more' means continuing deep concern over the state of the human race. 'Perhaps ten will be found [there]' means if remnants were still present. 'And He said, I will not destroy it for the sake of the ten' means that they will be saved.
