Exegesis
The finite verb exelthen {ἐξῆλθεν | ex-Êl-then} “went out” takes Lōt {Λὼτ | Lōt} as its subject, and the prepositional phrase apo Sodomōn {ἀπὸ Σοδόμων | a-pó So-DÓ-mōn} “from Sodom” indicates his departure from the doomed city.
In context — Luke 17:29
But on the day when Lot went out from Sodom , it rained fire and sulfur from heaven and destroyed them all.
