Lot’s Family Escapes at Dawn
As the first light of dawn begins to break, a sense of urgency fills the air. The angels, recognizing the hesitation of Lot, his wife, and their daughters, quickly step in to help. They take Lot by the hand and then reach for the hands of his wife and daughters, guiding them away from the doomed city. With a firm but gentle grip, the angels lead them through the darkening sky, which grows more ominous with every passing moment. The danger is real, but the angels’ actions are driven by compassion and mercy from the Lord, who does not want them to face the destruction that is about to unfold. Despite Lot’s uncertainty, the angels ensure their safety, guiding them away from the city to a place of refuge, away from the impending disaster. This act of mercy highlights the Lord’s kindness and His desire to protect the righteous, even when they are slow to act.
