        Just asking for source of where that is written, because if its not written down like you phrased, I can’t accept that as the background

          Here you go. He describes in even more detail Lot and his daughters addiction to the transgressive cultures (e.g. sexual perversion, violence, selfishness) of Sodom and Zoar culminating in incest with his daughters whom earlier he offered to the brutes who wished to rape and kill his visitors.

            This leads to a podcast site with dozens of episodes. Which one? And are they reading from an ancient text that says that or just hypothesizing. If it has a real source I’m interested.
