Lot's wife: what's her name? Reloaded.
"Question: 'A colleague asked me for the name of Lot's wife. I have searched through all of my resources but with no success; she is simply called 'Lot's wife.' Do you know her name?' Beverly (8/7/01)
Answer: No where in scripture is Lot's wife mentioned by name. There may be some (extra-biblical) historical account somewhere that names her specifically.

A reader emailed me to tell me that: 'There was a question (answer) on Jeopardy referring to Lot's wife and as a salty character and said her name was Ildeth. This particular show aired on March 24, 2004'. This may be her name, but the bible doesn't tell us for sure."
