Well, Abraham knew Lot and his wife were there. That's 2
Lot had 2 virgin daughters so that brings the total up to 4.
Lot had sons-in-law so that had to be at least 2 more so we are up to 6.
sons-in-law meant he had at least 2 married daughters so now we are up to 8.
and if the number of sons-in-law and married daughters were 3 or more that would have brought the total up to 10.
In
2 Peter 2:7-9 the Apostle Peter refers to Lot as "just," "righteous" and "godly"
