Gomorrah in the Bible

Meaning: rebellious people

Thematic Bible




if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and reduced them to ashes, thus holding them up as a warning to all who would live ungodly;



and if any place does not receive you, or listen to you, as you go out of it shake off the dust under your feet, as a warning to them."

So also Sodom and Gomorrah and the near-by cities which in like manner glutted themselves in sensuality and unnatural vice, are exhibited as a warning of the eternal fire, in the punishment they undergo.

"I tell you solemnly it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the Day of Judgment than for that town.

Even as in an earlier passage, Isaiah says, Except the Lord of Sabbath had us some few descendants, we should have become like Sodom, and should have fared like Gomorrah.
