Genesis 19:1–24
While God talked with Abraham, the angels left Mamre. That night they found Lot sitting by Sodom’s gate. They had come to destroy that sinful place. First the angels warned Lot to leave. But Lot was in no hurry to get away. So the angels grabbed his hand. They rushed him out with his wife and daughters. They warned, “Run for your life into the hills. Don’t look back.”
God rained fire on Sodom. Smoke covered the valley. But Lot’s wife looked back at the city. She turned into a pillar of salt. Her family kept running.
Questions: Why did God burn Sodom? Why did Lot’s wife turn into a pillar of salt?
