Unselfishly, Abraham gave Lot first choice of the land, and Lot chose to live in the District of the Jordan, which appeared Edenic in its fertility and beauty. ​ — Genesis 13: 5 - 13.
Omakasupüüdmatult lasi Aabraham Lotil esimesena maad valida ning Lott valis endale Jordani piirkonna, mis oli kaunis ja viljakas otsekui Eedeni aed.
