Gomorrah in the Bible

Meaning: rebellious people

Thematic Bible




and, turning to ashes the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, condemned them by an overthrow, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly;



And whatsoever place does not receive you, and they hear you not, going forth thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony to them."

Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them, having in like manner with these given themselves over to fornication, and going away after other flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire.
