It says Lot was sitting at the Gateway of city of Sodom ... not sure if this means he was working as a gate keeper or was he just so vexed of what the civilization had become and he just preferred to sit there to avoid seeing the revelry in the streets, gay pride parades, etc. Perhaps his wife could of had the opposite attitude like a lot of unsaved today with accepting the homosexual lifestyle and saying they must be born that way? Or perhaps she just enjoyed living in the city for easy access to a variety of food, clothing, etc. or was it she was sad to leave most of her family behind? Looks like we have to wait for heaven to get all the answers ... Not my comment TR! Sorry, just been reading them, my only comment is that the event of Sodom & Gomorrah has multiple layers of learning. Not just the finality and surety of God’s wrath poured out then and at the second coming; but also the people individually involved and lessons learned, warnings given from Abraham to the aftermath that occurred between Lot and His two daughters and the future kingdoms that created. Psalms 83:6-8 “...the tents of Edom and the Ish'maelites, Moab and the Hagrites, 7 Gebal and Ammon and Am'alek, Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; 8 Assyria also has joined them; they are the strong arm of the children of Lot. (Moab was the son of the oldest daughter and Ammon from the younger). This alliance in the Last Days is a union aimed at the destruction of Israel and it will not succeed but rather bring about the unification of the children of Abraham and the destruction of those who oppose the people of God. Fair use..... :prayer-hands: Indeed Tammie, we can all work our way into so many emotional corners. That said, she was seeing God work in so many ways on her husbands behalf, and for her immediate family! Not to mention having two angels present! Also seeing the possibility of angels escorting us outta here! TR Very interesting - thanks for the info Geri7 and Yohanan! That's something I've wondered for a long time and that makes sense. Especially the possibly that she really didn't want to leave. So often we say we want to be saved, healed, happy... (fill in the blank) but do we really want to let go of what's keeping us stuck? I wonder if that is why they continued to live there amongst all the sin. Because God knows our hearts He also knew her heart and where her allegiance was. Yet she had to follow her husband even if she left her heart behind. Her looking back could have been just due to her daughters remaining in the city and she was concerned for them but it could also have been because she really didn't want to leave. The physical act of looking may not have been the reason for her demise as much as the condition of an unyielding heart, which caused the action to take place and hence her demise. Remember, Abraham was looking down on the city inflamed yet he did not turn to salt because his allegiance and heart was with God.
