Genesis 19:1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground; 2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and you shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
All angels, both good and evil, have been given the ability to impersonate all life forms which are lower than themselves. And they do so with marvelous distinctness so that the human agent cannot, and we emphasize cannot, of themselves figure out what’s going on, whenever such impersonation takes place. This fact is evident from several passages and from the prophet of God, who has alerted us of their capabilities.
Genesis 19:3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat. 4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: 5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
