Exploring Gomorrah

Описание: In this video I examine the ashen ruins near Masada and the Dead Sea in Israel. Some believe these are the remains of Gomorrah, which God destroyed with fire and brimstone for their wickedness. Some of the structures in this area exhibit straight walls and ninety-degree corners. Balls of nearly pure sulfur ("brimstone" in the Bible) have been found embedded in the walls, and this type of sulfur has been found nowhere else on earth except in this region (including other ashen cities in the area--the Bible says that five cities were destroyed by fire and brimstone). In the first century, the historian Flavius Josephus said that the "traces or shadows of the five cities are still to be seen." While some of the ashen walls have disintegrated, much remains. Recently I learned that the chemical composition of the ash is the result of sulfur being burned with limestone rock (a common building material used even today in Israel, of which the old city walls of Jerusalem are comprised). While I did not come across any sulfur balls myself, many others have, and you can find their videos here on YouTube. Personally, I do believe this is one of the cities mentioned in Genesis which was destroyed by fire and brimstone, although I would be interested in hearing any alternative explanations for the apparently human design of the walls, the balls of brimstone embedded in them, and the ashen composition of the city.
