Why did Hashem punish Lot's wife with such a severe punishment. What was so bad about looking back at the destruction of Sodom? The answer is that any time there is destruction and punishment, it is coming from Hashem. By looking at this punishment she was seeing a strong revelation of Hashem's strength that she was not supposed to see. She should have had Emunah that this was what was going to happen and not have gone against the warning she was given.
When we see Hashem's judgement in the world we should realize that it is a revelation of Hashem's strength and compassion, that he does not let things go unpunished, and we can never know what the true reason for it is.
