So Lot went out and said to his
sons-in-law, “Up! Get out of this place, for the Lord is about to destroy the
city.” But he seemed to his sons-in-law to be jesting.
Lot came with urgent news that was met with
resistance in the genre of dismissive. His sons-in-law could not believe the
urgency. They couldn't take this seriously. Perhaps it was because Lot had a
habit of expressing his discontent for Sodom in superlatives (2 Peter 2:7-8) or
maybe it was due to their own moral luke warmness, but either way, these boys
were not moved or motivated by Lot's plea.
