Charles Ellicott Commentary Genesis 19:4

"But before they lay down, the men of the city, [even] the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both young and old, all the people from every quarter;" — Genesis 19:4 (ASV)

From every quarter. — Hebrew, from the end. This may mean either “to the last man” or “from the very end of the town.” In either case, it shows that there were not in Sodom the ten righteous men who would have availed to save it (Genesis 18:32).
