GENESIS 31 God condones neither incest nor drunkenness. (Leviticus 18:6, 7, 29; 1 Corinthians 6:9, 10) Moreover, Abrahams nephew Lot deplored the lawless deeds of Sodoms inhabitants and evidently grieved over the wrong conduct in which he himself got involved, for the Examiner of hearts viewed him as righteous. (2 Peter 2:8) The very fact that Lots daughters got him intoxicated suggests that they realized he would not consent to having sexual relations with them while he was sober. But as aliens in the land, his daughters felt that this was the only way to prevent the extinction of Lots family. The account is in the Bible not to arouse erotic thoughts but to reveal the relationship of the Moabites and the Ammonites to Abrahams descendants, the Israelites.
