The Strange Case of Lot and his Daughters

In Genesis chapter 19, two of God’s angels warn Lot that the city of Sodom will soon be destroyed because of the wickedness of the people, so he and his family must leave. Soon afterwards, Lot’s home is surrounded by many men who demand that the guests in his house surrender to them, so the men can rape them. Lot refuses and instead offers them his daughters (which is itself revolting as hell). The men of Sodom refuse this offer, so the angels then blind the men and enable Lot and his family to escape……except Lot’s wife dies when she looks back to see the destruction of the city, turning into a pillar of salt. And afterwards…….

Genesis 19:30-36

30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.

31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

35 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.

First of all, where did the girls get the alcohol to make their father drunk? They were in a cave, so they couldn’t have gone to a nearby bar to purchase alcoholic beverages. Did they have any money? And if they made their father so drunk he was unaware of his surroundings, sex was not an option,  due to his being unable to have an erection.

The reason for the strange telling of this story is because Lot was considered a “righteous” man. Well, so were the Duggars before their eldest son Josh was exposed as a CHILD RAPIST!

So this is what I really think could have happened:

30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.

31 And Lot said unto the firstborn, I am old, I have lost your mother and there is not a man in the earth I trust to be with you:

32 Come, let us lie together, that we may preserve seed of mine.

33 And the firstborn went in, and lay with her father;.

34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Lot said unto the younger, Behold, I will go in, and lie with you as I did with your sister, that we may preserve seed of mine.

35 And the younger arose, and lay with him;

36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.

So I think Lot raped his daughters, not the other way around.
