You gotta love how the Lord just shows up at Abraham's tent and shares a meal with him. It's all so cozy! Sometimes I envy people of biblical times who lived so close to the Divine at times.
In other news I am in awe of the amazing smear job of the author of Genesis on the Moabites and the Ammonites, telling us that Moab and Ben-Ammi (founding fathers of the Moabites and the Ammonites) were the incestuous offspring of Lot and his daughters.
Afraid that there are no more men left in the world and their family line might die out, Lot's daughters on two consecutive nights give their father too much wine to drink and have sex with him when he's out cold. Lot comes off as a prize idiot (not the first time actually). And the daughters are clearly quite stupid as well, they never thought of looking for a husband in Zoar or any of the other villages instead of settling for their father. As I said it's a great smear job. Even the English tabloids have nothing on the bible, and that's saying something!
