See how you translated the idiom lifted his eyes in Gen 18:2. It may be necessary to translate it differently here, because of the different context. Alternate translation: “he looked up”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

וַ⁠יַּ֥רְא אֶת הַ⁠מָּק֖וֹם מֵ⁠רָחֹֽק

Consider where it is best in your language to put the location phrase from a distance or “in the distance”. Alternate translation: “and he could see the place where they were headed in the distance.” or “and in the distance he could see the place where they were going.”
