I’ve been pondering Lot and his family. He left his wife behind when she made her choice to disobey God. She had been a decent woman, I think, but it was all moot when she made the deliberate choice to disobey. Like Eve.
Unlike Adam, Lot chose not to stay loyal to her and join her in sin. Perhaps he was helped to choose rightly by the thought of saving his children. He took the remaking obedient family members and moved on to the future. He did not waste time mourning or lamenting his wife. He moved forward. He held true to God’s requests.
Some good lessons here in these vaxx-torn family times.
I think I read a newer translation where Lot’s wife stopped to answer her cell phone. Something from her quack about cutting back on salt?
