("Lot did not want to stay in Egypt, but when he saw Abraham going, he went with him, for he chose to hide in his shadow in hunger and thirst rather than to sit in the wilderness of the land of Sheba" - Abarbanel at the beginning of chapter 12, and so: "And woe to you, and Germany will be conquered and will go, and the conquered lands will be multiplied, this is the saying of the coming lands. "To hide in the shadow of Germany, the mountain of its increase also requires the increase in contrasts" - Agnon/ Ad Hena, 86)
