The incestuous relationship between Lot and his daughters occurred more than 400 years before Noah was given the law, including the laws forbidding incest and polygamy.

Lot lived after Noah. Noah is Genesis 5. Lot's story begins in Genesis 12, (After his birth is mentioned in Genesis 11.)

Perhaps you mean Moses. But the law did not forbid polygamy either. David and Solomon both had multiple wives and found favor with the Lord for quite a while.

Neither did it forbid being a homo. (Genesis 13:13), yet it was a sin BEFORE the 'law' was given.
