(Lot was a Manifestation of God)[edit]

"And Lot truly was of our Sent Ones,"

Lot and two others alone supported Abraham[edit]

"These people believed not in one God but in many gods, to whom they ascribed miracles, and hence they all rose up against Abraham. No one supported Him except His nephew Lot and one or two other individuals of no consequence. At last the intensity of His enemies’ opposition obliged Him, utterly wronged, to forsake His native land. In reality He was banished that He might be reduced to naught and that no trace of Him might remain."

('Abdu'l-Bahá, Some Answered Questions, Chapter 4, par. 2)

Lot not responsible for the actions committed by his two daughters as they made him drunk[edit]

"Genesis XIX, 29-38--the text makes it quite clear that Lot was not responsible for the action committed by his two daughters, as they gave him wine and made him drunk."

(From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi, Dawn of a New Day, p. 201, in Lights of Guidance, no. 1689)

"And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose."

(Genesis 19:33)
