Can anything good come from Sodom? A feminist and narrative critique of Lot’s daughters in Gen. 19.30-38

For countless centuries, the story of Lot’s daughters in Genesis has both abhorred and intrigued countless readers. Utilizing the hermeneutical lenses of Narrative and Feminist Criticism, this article draws attention to overlooked details in the narrative. The story is also contrasted with that of the Levite’s Concubine in Judges 19. This study concludes that the narrative has been misread by past interpreters, arguing that the eldest daughter intentionally sought to deceive her younger sister for the intention of shaming their father as retribution for endangering their lives in Sodom. It proposes that the narrative of Gen. 19.30-38 is a dramatic representation by its author of divine irony and a strikingly pro-feminine text for the patriarchal society in which and to which it was written.
