Lot’s wife could not accept the change that G-d demanded of her family - to leave Sodom and never look back. She’d liked their properous life in Sodom and hated to leave,


The Bible says Lot went on with just his two daughters and himself. Like mother like daughters -— they both got their father drunk so he would “lay with them”. The resulting two sons were the forebears of Moab and Ammon.
Lot, early on, showed himself to be unworthy. First, he asked for (and got) the best parcel of land, then took a foolish wife, then moved to a City so sinful God determined to destroy it, then offered to let the wicked men of the city use his daughters for sex, then had to be nearly dragged out of the city, to keep from being destroyed, then allowed his two daughters to get him drunk, and have sex with him. What a guy!

And yet...

If they had been Muslims banging on the door for a free lunch, he would have offered them BLTs.

These Bible folks, gotta love 'em.
