Its name, meaning "small" or "insignificant," reflects its status among the other cities, such as Sodom and Gomorrah.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Zoar is historically significant as one of the five cities of the plain, which included Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim. It is notably the city to which Lot and his daughters fled during the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. The city was spared from destruction, possibly due to its smaller size or Lot's plea for refuge. Zoar's location near the Dead Sea places it in a region known for its geological and historical significance, including its association with the biblical narrative of judgment and mercy.<div
