It is often cited as a symbol of sin and divine judgment. The account of Sodom is primarily found in the Book of Genesis, but references to the city appear throughout both the Old and New Testaments.<br><br><b>Biblical Account:</b> <br>The city of Sodom is first mentioned in <a href="/genesis/10-19.htm">Genesis 10:19</a> as part of the territory of the Canaanites. Its most detailed narrative appears in <a href="/bsb/genesis/18.htm">Genesis 18-19</a>. In <a href="/bsb/genesis/18.htm">Genesis 18</a>, the LORD appears to Abraham and reveals His plan to investigate the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham intercedes for the city, asking if God would spare it for the sake of fifty righteous people, eventually negotiating down to ten (<a href="/genesis/18-32.htm">Genesis 18:32</a>: "Then he said, 'May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak once more. What if only ten can be found there?' And He answered, 'On account of the ten, I will not destroy it.'").<br><br>In <a href="/bsb/genesis/19.htm">Genesis 19</a>, two angels visit Sodom and are met by Lot, Abraham's nephew, who insists they stay at his house. The men of Sodom, described as wicked, surround Lot's house and demand to have relations with the visitors (<a href="/genesis/19-5.htm">Genesis 19:5</a>: "They called out to Lot and asked, 'Where are the men who came to you tonight? Send them out to us so we can have relations with them!'"). Lot offers his daughters instead, but the men refuse. The angels then strike the men with blindness and warn Lot to flee the city with his family.<br><br>The destruction of Sodom is swift and complete. <a href="/genesis/19-24.htm">Genesis 19:24-25</a> states, "Then the LORD rained down sulfur and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the LORD out of the heavens. Thus He destroyed these cities and the entire plain, including all the inhabitants of the cities and everything that grew on the ground." Lot's wife, looking back at the city, becomes a pillar of salt (<a href="/genesis/19-26.htm">Genesis 19:26</a>).<br><br><b>Moral and Theological Themes:</b> <br>Sodom is often associated with extreme moral depravity and is used as a warning against sin throughout the Bible. The city's sins are described in various passages, including <a href="/ezekiel/16-49.htm">Ezekiel 16:49-50</a>, which highlights pride, gluttony, and neglect of the poor. <a href="/jude/1-7.htm">Jude 1:7</a> also references Sodom, stating, "In like manner, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in sexual immorality and pursued strange flesh, are on display as an example of those who sustain the punishment of eternal fire."<br><br>The destruction of Sodom serves as a powerful example of divine judgment against sin. It underscores the seriousness with which God views sin and the consequences of turning away from His commandments. The narrative also highlights God's mercy, as seen in His willingness to spare the city for the sake of a few righteous individuals, and His deliverance of Lot and his family.<br><br><b>New Testament References:</b> <br>Sodom is mentioned several times in the New Testament as a symbol of judgment. Jesus refers to Sodom in the context of unrepentant cities, stating that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for those who reject His message (<a href="/matthew/10-15.htm">Matthew 10:15</a>: "Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town."). This comparison emphasizes the gravity of rejecting the Gospel.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context:</b> <br>Sodom was located in the region of the Jordan Valley, near the Dead Sea. Archaeological evidence and historical records have not definitively identified the exact location of Sodom, but several sites have been proposed. The account of Sodom has had a lasting impact on literature, art, and religious thought, often serving as a cautionary tale about the consequences of sin and the importance of righteousness.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>The account of Sodom remains a significant narrative within the biblical canon, illustrating themes of sin, judgment, mercy, and redemption. Its legacy continues to influence theological discussions and moral teachings within the Christian tradition.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Sodom</span><p>their secret; their cement<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Sodom</span><p>(<i>burning</i>), one of the most ancient cities of Syria. It is commonly mentioned in connection with Gomorrah, but also with Admah and Zeboim, and on one occasion -- (<a href="/genesis/14-1.htm">Genesis 14:1</a>) ... --with Bela or Zoar. Sodom was evidently the chief town in the settlement. The four are first named in the ethnological records of (<a href="/genesis/10-19.htm">Genesis 10:19</a>) as belonging to the Canaanites. The next mention of the name of Sodom, (<a href="/genesis/13-10.htm">Genesis 13:10-13</a>) gives more certain indication of the position of the city. Abram and Lot are standing together between Bethel and Ai, ver. 3, taking a survey of the land around and below them. Eastward of them, and absolutely at their feet, lay the "circle of Jordan." The whole circle was one great oasis --"a garden of Jehovah." ver. 10. In the midst of the garden the four cities of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboim appear to have been situated. It is necessary to notice how absolutely the cities are identified with the district. In the subsequent account of their destruction, (<a href="/genesis/19-1.htm">Genesis 19:1</a>) ... the topographical terms are employed with all the precision which is characteristic of such early times. The mention of the Jordan is conclusive as to the situation of the district, for the Jordan ceases where it enters the Dead Sea, and can have no existence south of that point. The catastrophe by which they were destroyed is described in (<a href="/genesis/19-1.htm">Genesis 19:1</a>) ... as a shower of brimstone and fire from Jehovah. However we may interpret the words of the earliest narrative, one thing is certain --that the lake was not one of the agents in the catastrophe. From all these passages, though much is obscure, two things seem clear: <ol> <li>That Sodom and the rest of the cities of the plain of Jordan stood on the north of the Dead Sea;</li> <li>That neither the cities nor the district were submerged by the lake, but that the cities were overthrown and the land spoiled, and that it may still be seen in its desolate condition. When, however, we turn to more modern views, we discover a remarkable variance from these conclusions.</li> <li>The opinion long current that the five cities were submerged in the lake, and that their remains--walls, columns and capitals--might he still discerned below the water, hardly needs refutation after the distinct statement and the constant implication of Scripture. But,</li> <li>A more serious departure from the terms of the ancient history is exhibited in the prevalent opinion that the cities stood at the south end of the lake. This appears to, have been the belief of Josephus and Jerome. It seems to have been universally held by the medieval historians and pilgrims, and it is adopted by modern topographers probably without exception. There are several grounds for this belief; but the main point on which Dr. Robinson rests his argument is the situation of Zoar. (a) "Lot," says he, "fled to Zoar, which was <i>near</i> to Sodom; and Zoar lay almost at the southern end of the present sea, probably in the month of <i>Wady Kerak</i> ." (b) Another consideration in favor of placing the cities at the southern end of the lake is the existence of similar names in that direction. (c) A third argument, and perhaps the weightiest of the three, is the existence of the salt mountain at the south of the lake, and its tendency to split off in columnar masses presenting a rude resemblance to the human form. But it is by no means certain that salt does not exist at other spots round the lake. (d) (A fourth and yet stronger argument is drawn from the fact that Abraham saw the smoke of the burning cities from Hebron. (e) A fifth argument is found in the numerous lime-pits found at that southern end of the Dead Sea. Robinson, Schaff, Baedeker, Lieutenant Lynch and others favor this view. --ED.) It thus appears that on the situation of Sodom no satisfactory conclusion can at present be readied: On the one hand, the narrative of Genesis seems to state positively that it lay at the northern end of the Dead Sea. On the other hand, long-continued tradition and the names of the existing spots seem to pronounce with almost equal positiveness that it was at its southern end. Of the catastrophe which destroyed the city and the district of Sodom we can hardly hope ever to form a satisfactory conception. Some catastrophe there undoubtedly was but what secondary agencies, besides fire, were employed in the accomplishment of the punishment cannot be safely determined in the almost total absence of exact scientific description of the natural features of the ground round the lake. We may suppose, however, that the actual agent in the ignition and destruction of the cities had been of the nature of a tremendous thunder-storm accompanied by a discharge of meteoric stones, (and that these set on fire the bitumen with which the soil was saturated, and which was used in building the city. And it may be that this burning out of the soil caused the plain to sink below the level of the Dead Sea, and the waters to flow over it--if indeed Sodom and its sister cities are really under the water.--ED.) The miserable fate of Sodom and Gomorrah is held up as a warning in numerous passages of the Old and New Testaments.

The plain of Siddim in which they stood was pleasant and fruitful, like an earthy paradise; but it was first burned, and afterwards mostly overflowed by the waters of the Dead Sea or Lake of Sodom.

No trace of it or of the other cities of the plain has been discovered, so complete was their destruction. Just opposite the site of Zoar, on the south-west coast of the Dead Sea, is a range of low hills, forming a mass of mineral salt called Jebel Usdum, "the hill of Sodom." It has been concluded, from this and from other considerations, that the cities of the plain stood at the southern end of the Dead Sea. Others, however, with much greater probability, contend that they stood at the northern end of the sea.

What this "Dead Sea fruit" is, is uncertain. The name "Dead Sea apples" is often given to the fruit of the Solanum Sodomaean "a prickly shrub with fruit not unlike a small yellow tomato." Cheyne thinks that the fruits referred to by Josephus (compare Tacitus Hist. v.37) may be either<br><br>(1) those of the `osher tree (`usar, Calotropis procera, described by Hasselquist (Travels, 1766)), found in abundance about Jericho and near the Dead Sea, which are filled with dust when they have been attacked by an insect, leaving the skin only entire, and of a beautiful color. Tristram describes the fruit as being "as large as an apple of average size, of a bright yellow color, hanging three or four together close to the stem"; or as suggested by Tristram<br><br>(2) those of the wild colocynth; the fruit is fair of aspect with a pulp which dries up into a bitter powder (EB, article "Sodom," col. 4669, note 2). This colocynth is supposed to be the "wild vine" mentioned <a href="/2_kings/4-39.htm">2 Kings 4:39</a>. The "vine of Sodom" of <a href="/deuteronomy/32-32.htm">Deuteronomy 32:32</a> has been supposed to bear the "Dead Sea fruit"; but most modern writers regard the passage as figurative.<br><br>W. L.
