And he (Lot) Dwelt in a Cave

וַיֵּשֶׁב ( לוט) בַּמְּעָרָה
Beraishit 29.30 


30.’ And Lot ascended from Zoar and he dwelt in the mountain and his two daughters with him, as he feared to dwell in Zoar, and he dwelt in a cave he and his two daughters-וַיַּעַל לוֹט מִצּוֹעַר וַיֵּשֶׁב בָּהָר וּשְׁתֵּי בְנֹתָיו עִמּוֹ כִּי יָרֵא לָשֶׁבֶת בְּצוֹעַר וַיֵּשֶׁב בַּמְּעָרָה הוּא וּשְׁתֵּי בְנֹתָיו (5564+17 words=5581=19=10=1).

The verse can be divided so:
·         And Lot ascended from Zoar and he dwelt in the mountain- וַיַּעַל לוֹט מִצּוֹעַר וַיֵּשֶׁב בָּהָר (1092+5 words =17=8);
·         And his two daughters with him, as he feared to dwell in Zoar, and he dwelt in a cave-וּשְׁתֵּי בְנֹתָיו עִמּוֹ כִּי יָרֵא לָשֶׁבֶת בְּצוֹעַר וַיֵּשֶׁב בַּמְּעָרָה (3276=18);
·         He and his two daughters- הוּא וּשְׁתֵּי בְנֹתָיו (1196 =17=8).
Rashi comments that Lot was scared to dwell there as it was close to Sodom. 

It would appear that Lot moved further away from Abraham and went to the east side of the Jordan. There are mountain ranges on both sides of the river Jordan. Lot had finally realized that he had no claim whatsoever to the Land of “Canaan” as it belonged to Abraham. On the east side of the Jordan is where the lands of Moab and Ammon were to be situated. In this portion, the east side of the River Jordan, we read of the birth of Ammon and Moab.

And Lot ascended from Zoar
וַיַּעַל לוֹט מִצּוֹעַר
567=18

In the secret darkness of a metaphysical "cave"- מְעָרָה a special soul from the Eighth Sphira was to be conceived in darkness and with "cunning"- עֲרֻמָה.

Its appearance as is alluded to in the final letters of the word "Cave"-: מְעָרָה

Cave
מְ-עָ-רָ-ה

Mem- Ayin- Resh- Heh

מֶ"ם- עַיִ"ן- רֵי"שׁ- הֵ"ה

730=10=1
1940+4 words=18

This is the soul of Ruth the Moabite- רות המואביה who conceived with the righteous Boaz Oved and with him the Soul of King David and ultimately the Soul of Mashiach.

As we find in the Book of Ruth (3.7):


And he came to lie at the edge of the haystack

וַיָּבֹא לִשְׁכַּב בִּקְצֵה הָעֲרֵמָה

888

Haystack= Cave
Aramah-Ma'arah
עֲרֵמָה=מְּעָרָה


Moab was conceived in a dark cave…מְּעָרָה 
Oved the son of Ruth and Boaz was conceived in light in a haystack-עֲרֵמָה

Hashem through His Mashiach will turn the darkness into light, as it is written (Book of Iyov 28.3):


He put an end to darkness
קֵץ שָׂם לַחֹשֶׁךְ
888

And he came to lie at the edge of the haystack
וַיָּבֹא לִשְׁכַּב בִּקְצֵה הָעֲרֵמָה
888

Code of Hai "Life"/Living Code
צפן ח"י
888

+ 2 words=26=8 (Nun 700)
