Stumped by a Biblical figure’s wife? Unlock the answer to this crossword clue!

Once upon a time, in ancient Mesopotamia, there was a prosperous merchant named Lot. Lot was known to be very religious and often recited verses from the Bible. Lot was also known for having a beautiful wife that he cherished dearly. However, one day, a terrible disaster struck the city of Sodom and Gomorrah, and Lot and his wife had to flee for their lives.

As they were running away, Lot’s wife turned to look back at the burning city but was turned into a pillar of salt. From that day on, Lot’s wife was known as the “unnamed wife,” as her name was never mentioned in the Bible. Lot was heartbroken and continued to wander the desert alone.

Years later, a crosswords enthusiast stumbled upon this story while trying to solve a puzzle about a “Biblical figure with an unnamed wife.” He remembered Lot’s story and filled in the answer to be LOT. And just like that, the connection between the crossword clue and answer was made.
