2.In Genesis 18, God informs Abraham that he plans to destroy the city of Sodom because of its gross immorality.Abraham pleads with God not to destroy Sodom, and God agrees that he would not destroy the city if there were 50 righteous people in it, then 45, then 30, then 20, or even ten righteous people.Consequently, God destroyed the city.Lot refused to give the visiting angels to the inhabitants of Sodom.The men were struck with blindness, allowing Lot and his family, who were then instructed to leave the city, to escape.However as Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed with fire and brimstone by God, Lot's wife was unable to keep her concentration and turned back to look at the city, and she was instantly transformed into a pillar of salt.God accuses Jerusalem of being worse than Sodom.He explains that the sin of Sodom was that "She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.Jewish views
Classical Jewish texts do not stress the homosexual aspect of the attitude of the inhabitants of Sodom as much as their cruelty and lack of hospitality to the "stranger."The people of Sodom were seen as guilty of many other significant sins.The unfortunate stranger would end up starving and after his death, the people who gave him the money would reclaim it.Mishnah, postulates that the sin of Sodom was related to property: Sodomites believed that "what is mine is mine, and what is yours is yours" (Abot), which is interpreted as a lack of compassion.One major crime done to strangers was almost identical to that of Procrustes in Greek mythology.This would be the story of the "bed" that guests to Sodom were forced to sleep in: if they were too short they were stretched to fit it, and if they were too tall, they were cut up.In another incident, Eliezer, Abraham's servant, went to visit Lot in Sodom and got in a dispute with a Sodomite over a beggar, and was hit in the forehead with a stone, making him bleed.The Sodomite demanded Eliezer pay him for the service of bloodletting, and a Sodomite judge sided with the Sodomite.Eliezer then struck the judge in the forehead with a stone and asked the judge to pay the Sodomite.The Talmud and the book of Jasher also recount two incidents of a young girl (one involved a daughter of Lot, named Paltith) who gave some bread to a poor man who had entered the city."So Hashem said, 'Because the outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah has become great, and because their sin has been very grave, I will descend and see...Now, about this time the Sodomites, overwhelmingly proud of their numbers and the extent of their wealth, showed themselves insolent to men and impious to the divinity, insomuch that they no more remembered the benefits that they had received from him, hated foreigners and avoided any contact with others.And the angels came to the city of the Sodomites...Therefore, God, indignant at their bold acts, struck them with blindness, so that they were unable to find the entrance into the house, and condemned the Sodomites to destruction of the whole population.He says how beautiful it was before everything was burned up, and how rich the towns were in the area.This article needs additional citations for verification.There are two prevailing views of the sin of Sodom in Christian thought.One is that the destruction of Sodom was due to inhospitality, as illustrated by the gifts of God to Abraham for his gracious action, contrasted with consequences of the behavior of the city's inhabitants.First we see hospitality and the way we should act, then inhospitality in that the people of Sodom seek to mistreat the newcomers.Lucas Van Leyden, a drunken Lot embraces his daughter while Sodom burns in the distance.Now this was the sin of Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.Jude 1:7
Interpretations of this passage vary.As in other traditions, Islam teaches that Lut had originally lived in Ur and was a nephew of Abraham.His story is often used as a reference by traditional Islamic scholars to show homosexuality to be against God's law or Haraam.He was commanded by God to go to the land of Sodom and Gomorrah to preach to the people on monotheism and to bring their sinful behavior to an end.In the Qur'an as in the Bible, Lut's messages are ignored, and Sodom and Gomorrah are destroyed.Historicity
The historical existence of Sodom and Gomorrah is still in dispute by archaeologists.Strabo states that locals living near Moasada (probably Masada) say that "there were once thirteen inhabited cities in that region of which Sodom was the metropolis".Strabo a limestone and salt hill at the southwestern tip of the Dead Sea, and Kharbet Usdum ruins nearby as the site of biblical Sodom.Arabic sadama meaning 'fasten,' 'fortify,' 'strengthen' and Gomorrah is based on the root gh m r which means 'be deep,' 'copious (water)'.Pettinato and correspond to Admah and Sodom, and they are contained in a list of cities that traces a route along the shores of, or quite possibly within the Dead Sea, whose position may have since shifted along its fault.Possible candidates for Sodom or Gomorrah are the sites discovered or visited by Walter E.Dhra, which was originally excavated in 1965 by archaeologist Paul Lapp, only to have his work continued by Rast and Schuab following his death by accidental drowning in the waters off of Cyprus in 1970.Safi, Feifeh and Khanazir, which were also visited by Schuab and Rast.All sites were located near the Dead Sea, with evidence of burning and traces of sulfur on many of the stones and a sudden stop of inhabitation towards the end of the Early Bronze Age.Sodom and Gomorrah in the Old Testament, early Jewish and early Christian traditions.New York: Harper and Brothers.Voyage autour de la mer Morte et dans les terres bibliques."The Overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah (Accadian Account)" Records of the Past XI 115.The Hibbert Lectures, 1887: Lectures on the Origin and Growth of Religion, 309.American Schools of Oriental Research."BAR Interviews Giovanni Pettinato"."The Discovery of the Sin Cities of Sodom and Gomorrah"."Sodom and Gomorrah: The Destruction of the Cities of the Plain"."Once Again: Sodom and Gomorrah".Biblical Archaeologist 44 (2).East edge of the Dead Sea in Jordan, not far from Numeira (identified with Gomorroh)."In the eastern Mediterranean region (Israel, Palestine, Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan), people built the first walled cities during a period archaeologists call the Early Bronze Age (EBA, c.In the EBA on the southeastern Dead Sea Plain (Map 1), people began burying their dead in extensive cemeteries, creating a landscape of the dead.Interestingly, they soon built two walled towns next to the cemeteries that they had used for a few centuries.Atlantic Baptist University Sodom and Gomorrah

12.In addition to structural inventions that survive in the genetic lineage of death and black metal, Sodom contributed several important ideas: ambient drumming, which rarely ends phrases with fills but continues often across riff changes at the same tempo, allowing the artist more flexibility in composing lead rhythm playing as one might in a classical piece, in the narrative style; serial drumming, where tempo does not change but texture does, creating a displacement that can complement a thematic change in riff; use of chord voicings beyond the standard power chord in sequential alternation, using harmony as a contextual and melodic device simultaneously; change in texture between different speeds of tremolo strum, muted picking and open chording, giving more emphasis to phrase and less to rhythm and harmonic synchronization of riff.This can be seen in a small degree on the cover of "Iron Fist" which outdoes the Motorhead original in precision and impact.Pretenders To The Throne
15.Hellhammer, Bathory, Slayer and Sodom.While these two releases from Germany's Sodom were clearly instrumental to reaching this stage, they are perhaps best reserved for historians.Their song titles and ideas live on in the work of newer bands, and while listening to this once can give an insight into the past, listening to it repeatedly might drone the listener into a coma.On "Agent Orange," Sodom straddled the line, and what results is a series of cadenced riffs and shouted choruses that are not without merit but are not particular exciting either.It does achieve an undulating bass effect that makes it satisfying, rhythmic, stomping "party music."Where Sodom still thunders is in the capacity to architecturally conceive of the kind of tonal motion needed to convey with rhythm a mood of storming power and alarm.Sodom dispense with their past and open a dubious future."Are you sure you want to block this user?Vocals,

Gomorrah that were destroyed that day.So far, at least 5 cities have been
discovered that were turned to ash and have sulfur balls strewn throughout them.You can see the rectangular outline of
the city walls.The houses and buildings were actually quite substantial in size, suggesting
a people of great stature once inhabited these cities.The walls and everything in
the cities were turned completely to ash!Here is a mound that looks as if it had been a ziggurat (a pagan pyramidal temple).On two occasions, the
investigation teams entered the cities after a rain fall.The glass surrounding the
balls glistened in the light, the rain having exposed millions of the balls.The balls themselves were composed of pressed pure powder sulfur.When the balls had fallen from heaven, they were estimated to be around 5,000 degrees
Celsius (or around 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit).The heat had literally
burned up the gold in the coins turning them to gold ash.Photos copyrighted by MindVision
