Sodom and Gomorrah

Place

Sodom and Gomorrah are two legendary biblical cities famously destroyed by divine intervention with fire and brimstone due to the wickedness of their inhabitants. Mentioned extensively in the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament, and the Quran, they serve as prominent symbols of human sinfulness and divine retribution. Historically, they are associated with the plain surrounding the Dead Sea, though their exact physical locations remain a subject of archaeological debate.
