1364. From Lot two nations descended which were idolaters. This is clear from the two sons he had by his daughters, Genesis 19:37-38, namely Moab and Ammon, from whom the Moabites and the Ammonites sprang, who, as is evident from the Word, were idolaters. Lot is mentioned here as the father of the idolatrous forms of worship meant by Moab and Ammon.
