MEDITATION
Genesis 19:30-33
30 Then Lot went up out of Zoar and dwelt in the mountains, and his two daughters were with him; for he was afraid to dwell in Zoar. And he and his two daughters dwelt in a cave.
31 Now the firstborn said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is no man on the earth to come in to us as is the custom of all the earth.
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve the lineage of our father.”
33 So they made their father drink wine that night. And the firstborn went in and lay with her father, and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.

沉思
《创世记19:30-33》
30罗得因为怕住在琐珥,就同他两个女儿从琐珥上去,住在山里。他和两个女儿住在一个洞里。
31大女儿对小女儿说:“我们的父亲老了,地上又无人按着世上的常规进到我们这里。
32来,我们可以叫父亲喝酒,与他同寝,这样我们好从他存留后裔。”33于是那夜她们叫父亲喝酒,大女儿就进去和她父亲同寝。她几时躺下,几时起来,父亲都不知道。
