词条 | Lot's daughters |
释义 |
Lot's daughters are four women, two unnamed people in the Book of Genesis, and two others, including Paltith, in the Book of Jasher.[1] Only two daughters are mentioned in Genesis 19, while Lot and his family are in Sodom. Two angels arrive in Sodom, and Lot shows them hospitality. However, the men of the city gather around Lot's house and demand that he give them the two guests so they could rape them. In response, Lot offers the mob his two daughters instead, noting that they are virgins (verse {{bibleverse-nb||Genesis|19:8|HE}}). The mob refuses Lot's offer, but the angels strike them with blindness, and then warn Lot to leave the city before it is destroyed. {{bibleverse||Genesis|19:14|HE}} indicates that Lot has sons-in-law. The Hebrew text indicates that they are married to Lot's daughters, while NIV interprets the expression as "pledged to marry" his virgin daughters. Robert Alter suggests that verse {{bibleverse-nb||Genesis|19:15|HE}} ("your two daughters who remain with you") indicates that Lot's two virgin daughters left with him, but that he had other, married daughters who stayed behind with the sons-in-law.[2]Lot's wife turns into a pillar of salt, but Lot and his daughters escape to Zoar, and end up living in a cave in the mountains. In Genesis {{bibleverse-nb||Genesis|19:30-38|HE}} Lot's daughters got their father drunk, and over two consecutive nights had sex with him without his knowledge. They both got pregnant. The older daughter gave birth to Moab, while the younger daughter gave birth to Ammon. Lot's daughters may have feared that they were the last humans on earth and wanted to preserve the human race.[3]Many scholars have drawn a connection between the episodes of Lot's daughters. Robert Alter suggests that this final episode "suggests measure-for-measure justice meted out for his rash offer."[4] A number of commentators describe the actions of Lot's daughters as rape. Esther Fuchs suggests that the text presents Lot's daughters as the "initiators and perpetrators of the incestuous 'rape'."[5] {{commons category|Lot and his daughters}}References1. ^{{cite book|title=Book of Jasher|url=https://www.ccel.org/a/anonymous/jasher/19.htm}} {{Authority control}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Alter|first1=Robert|author-link=Robert Alter|title=The Five Books of Moses: A Translation with Commentary|date=2008|page=93}} 3. ^{{cite web |last=Kadari |first=Tamar |title=Lot's Daughters: Midrash and Aggadah |website=Jewish Women's Archive |date=2015-10-24 |url=https://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/lots-daughters-midrash-and-aggadah |access-date=2018-12-06}} 4. ^Alter, Five Books of Moses, p. 92. 5. ^{{cite book|last1=Fuchs|first1=Esther|author-link=Esther Fuchs|title=Sexual Politics in the Biblical Narrative: Reading the Hebrew Bible as a Woman|date=2003|page=209|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=0j6vAwAAQBAJ&pg=PA209|accessdate=10 July 2015|isbn=9780567042873}} 5 : Book of Genesis people|Lot (biblical person)|Rape|Sibling duos|Women in the Hebrew Bible |
