30 Lot went up from Zoar, and stayed in the mountains, and his two daughters with him; for he was afraid to stay in Zoar; and he stayed in a cave, he and his two daughters. 31 Then the firstborn said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is not a man on earth to come in to us after the manner of the earth. 32 “Come, let us make our father drink wine, and let us lie with him that we may preserve our family through our father.” 33 So they made their father drink wine that night, and the firstborn went in and lay with her father; and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose. 34 On the following day, the firstborn said to the younger, “Behold, I lay last night with my father; let us make him drink wine tonight also; then you go in and lie with him, that we may preserve our family through our father.” 35 So they made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger arose and lay with him; and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose. 36 Thus both the daughters of Lot were with child by their father. 37 The firstborn bore a son, and called his name Moab; he is the father of the Moabites to this day. 38 As for the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi; he is the father of the sons of Ammon to this day.
This story is just a bit disturbing. Lot is so scared of living in Zoar (which was probably evil as well, but Lot had asked for it to be spared), that he becomes a hermit, and takes his daughters up into the mountains to live. His daughters don’t care too much about that, but they are concerned about having children, and preserving their father’s lineage. So they get him drunk and have children by their father. I’m not in favor of totally removing children from society, but it seems that Lot didn’t do much to preserve his daughters’ sense of right and wrong while living in Sodom. As Proverbs says, “Train up a child in the way that he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” On the converse, let the world train your child, and he will depart from the path of righteousness as soon as possible.
