Anonymous, I believe that by recording this Biblical account of Lot 's life the Scripture is confirming that God is no respector of person. All men failures and successes regardless of how great they are or how favored they are in God 's sight. I believe one reason the angel didn 't mention any daughter-in-laws of Lot is because he probably had no sons. I also, believe that like the proverb says necessity is the mother of invention there were no men or no righteous men around to continue the seed or blood line of righteous Lot therefore his daughters devised their plot to carry on his seed. They didn 't have the faith or patience to wait for God to provide. Incest was not frown on as much then as it is today. After all is said and done God allowed the plot to succeed. God bless us al and in the understanding of His Word glory be to God in the highest. Amen.
