@@jeremiahfyan it is very low indeed, but it isn't zero, and given enough time it would eventually happen. But I agree and at the same time kinda disagree with this conceptualization of God you speak of, even in the light of the historical context of these ancient cultures and traditions. Meteors, brimstone, earthquakes, floods, natural disasters of all kind have often been interpreted by many of our ancestors as manifestations of Divine Wrath but that only points toward our infantile first steps toward understanding the numinous; an intermediate state between animism and modern theologies. Although, being true to the gift of science, we should be careful to extrapolate these kinds of coincidences as a vulgar and quick "proof of God". I do think that, if this is the historical Sodom and Gomorrah, this doesn't prove or disprove God. It does speak about the historicity of the bible and with further archeological discoveries toward the spiritual interpretation that we, as humans, do give to the things that happen. Of course, I do agree with God being in everything and everywhere, specially in the natural phenomena according to that tenet of God as the primum movens. Diaclosure: I investigate a very particular non-mainstream theological cosmology; not your usual ex nihilo argument since I do think that nothingness can only create nothing. As for the universe and nature I see the phenomena as consequence of the act of creation, not as the act itself. This is why it is transcendental and not at the same time. "Too late did I love You! For behold, You were within, and I without, and there did I seek You; I, unlovely, rushed heedlessly among the things of beauty You made." -St. Augustine

it's quite possible. many of the stories in the bible have verifiable historical basis or inspiration. and if there's shocked quartz that pretty much requires nuclear weapons or a cosmic impact. even if Tall El-Hammam isn't Sodom, which is more likely, the story would be remembered and perhaps added to the legend.

When they had it looked at by an expert, they concluded it was an asteroid, meteor that was responsible. From the direction it faced, the debris of flaming chunks of rock thrown up, would've easily reached Palestine, Israel. They thought it may have been responsible for the Biblical story.

Hey Anton. About 12 years ago I was watching this documentary about an excavation somewhere around Sinai peninsula, Jordan or Syria, where an ancient synagogue was unearthed that contained a ceramic mosaic map of the region pointing the location of several cities. In one of them, which was somewhere in an Iraqi province, they then found what looked like an ancient observatory with many clay disks mapping the stars. One of which charted a huge dash through the sky from the south East to the north west. The analysis of the excavation revealed that the city neighboring the observatory was destroyed some hours later , with similar findings to the ones you mention, pointing to a meteoric impact. Using the map from the first find, they located two other cities also destroyed by the same event, plus one last city that was spared, identified as the biblical city of Zoar, where Lot and his daughters were told to flee after being visited by two foreigners in their home in Sodom, who warned them that Sodom, Gomorrah and the other unnamed city would be destroyed before dawn the next morning. The researchers then traced the direction of the meteor seen by the Sumerian astronomer and deduced that it had crashed somewhere in the Alps, sending a large volume of material into the atmosphere, which then rained down over that region encompassing Jordan, Syria, western Iraq and the Sinai region. They used both the star maps they recovered as well as excavation data and found out that the time periods of the event and of the story in the Bible do coincide. Supposedly, the timing was also confirmed by glacier diggings that showed a flash-freeze somewhere in the same time period. This is vaguely what I remember from the documentary I watched, tho. Some of the details might be off, but I’m sure that you probably know something about this, or can find it all out much better than I can. If you do see this message, and you do know or find out if what I am telling you is accurate or if there is more/newer information about it, I’d love to know.

I remember something about them digging ice samples from the glaciers in South America. The samples contained frozen green plants and high CO2 at a depth corresponding to the time period in question, consistent with a flash-freeze consequent to sunlight being suddenly blocked for several days from reaching the surface of the planet by a large mass of dust high in the atmosphere, and that similar samples were dug out at different locations to confirm this had been a worldwide phenomenon.

When talking about ancient stories and myths, understand that the concept of fiction as a means of telling an entertaining story is a recent invention. In ancient times and even during the more recent medieval era, there was no such thing as a totally made up story. At least not one where the audience is fully aware that the story is not true. No one back then would want to waste time listening to a story that didnt convey actual events. Therefore, I propose that all ancient stories are based on actual events. The purpose of these stories was not to "teach" but rather to "inform". The details and places and character's names may change over time but the core event in the story is the truth, as far as they could make it out to be at the time.

Cultural development depends on flora and fauna, depends mostly on tectonic plates. Where 2 tectonic plates meet, you more likely get slightly more fertile land that is more easily defended (china). more isolated tectonic plates tend to have less diverse fauna, which then give agriculture less advantages, to a point, where over half of a population dies on a colonial first contact event due to lack of immunization with local pet diversity (almost all over america), instead of "only" one third of the population as in the European plaque. It seems that most gold and heavy elements on earths surface are from nearby supernovae.

I rushed outside, to try to get an idea of _what_ it was that had blown up. There was a factory a few blocks away from me, which was my first suspicion, but I also thought it might have been a _huge_ wreck between some large trucks on the highway a few blocks away. All I heard were crickets! I stood there for about ten minutes, waiting to hear _something_ -- I figured it would not take long for the police or fire truck sirens, which would give me an idea of what had gone kaboom, but NOTHING! I eventually went back inside, totally confused. The next day the local news had a report of a fireball passing overhead, seen by an airline pilot, who reported it crashing into Lake Michigan, with blue flames upon impact. Later that day I was speaking with a friend who owned a rental house, who told me that his tenants reported that they had been sitting on the porch when it happened, and that the whole sky lit up like daylight while it passed overhead. BTW, I attribute the blue flames when it hit Lake Michigan as being evidence of it hitting _so_ fast that there was enough pressure to disassociate the water, causing the hydrogen to ignite. If it had hit land, or, been large enough to explode airborne, there would have been serious property damage and loss of life. I wonder how many of these things are sitting at the bottom of the ocean (and large lakes and seas).

Brought to us down through the ages, there is always an important matter of truth that folklore strives to deliver to us; if we are to learn this truth, we must seek with patience and honest curiosity.

Also, what is really left out is the lessons of those who live out lives only in sin, for sin will all perish in sin and history is the only victor. Yet, the writer of history gives clues as to the overall direction of all things past, present and future and the "faith" it takes for all truth to be revealed can only come from the creator, not the creation. Never look to man to understand all things. Look to God. All things in the world are all OF the world and are all deceptions. If you think that you can think yourself into real knowledge is what Stalin and Hitler did. It's what Einstein did...and using their own minds they brought monsters into manifestation. Yet, had they followed their hearts, history would have been very different. Yet, it is that way and for reasons you can never understand because they are not for your understanding, but for the one or ones who God chooses to reveal them to. Yet, you do not have that understanding because you yourself can not choose for yourself to what knowledge is revealed. God Himself chooses His self to whom He reveals Himself to. Not a religion, not a church, not a synagogue....none of those temporary things. Only God. Who is God? You will never know because you look out to the world for answers. You do the same exact things all people have done. Stop looking out, start looking WITHIN.

Look at the @Randall Carlson channel on YT. He has amassed some very amazing evidence on the floods and ancient myths.

Maybe the inhabitants who fled the region after the explosion were the Hyksos who conquered Egypt.

The theory definitely has a few holes that don't seem like they could get filled at the moment, but an interesting idea nonetheless. It's the kind of thing where the odds and evidence aren't enough for it to not be a bit wild, but also...of course ancient people would think gods were mad at them if a meteor detonated over their major city and wiped it clean so it makes sense on that through-line. Hope more conclusive findings are in the near future.

Air bursts don't create shocked quartz or micro spherules. I think those are leftovers from the Younger-Dryus event 12,800 years ago.

I missed the old days. Before the meteors I recall how great our sports games were in high school between us and Gomorrah. Morton high school I will never forget.

Thank you Anton! We always enjoy your explanations!

Gomorrah though was another city in another nearby area though, Sodom was just one of two totally separate towns!! Kind of like saying Atlantic City and New York City are 'close" but in two different states even though they are "near to each other"!! Another thing to know about Sodom and Gomorrah though is the story of Lots' wife, she is said in the bible story to disobey the word of God and she looked back at both Sodom and Gomorrah, and because of her betrayal she was turned into a pillar of salt!! In some research this same thing happens to a human body during a nuclear explosion at a "given distance" from a nuclear blast!! Not exactly certain what distance that is myself.....but I have read things that confirm this!!

An Anton upload and I didn’t get notified 😩 I feel so cheated!🤣😩

What is interesting is all the sulfur balls they have found all over this area with a layer of bone ash and burnt pottery. Which could be if a meteor was comprised of sulfur it would have more or less been a giant napalm bomb.

That distribution of salt could explain Lot's wife becoming a pillar of salt. Not literally, of course, but by being struck by break-off from the meteorite, or asteroid. Also, the map suggested proximity to Jericho. The blast, or shockwave, as with Tunguska could explain the walls collapsing. Thanks, Anton.

If you look at the blast that occurred in Lebanon a few years ago due to tons of explosive chemicals in a warehouse catching fire after some fireworks caught fire, being close to a large enough asteroid impact would be likewise catastrophic is not worse, being too close to such an impact would result in limbs torn from people's bodies, organs collapsing while other organs ruptured, deafness, etc, and over time such gory details could be summarized in a story about hedonism, not following the word of a God, and as yet another way to demonize women, those who's culture is different, etc.

Became a pillar of salt or became AS a pillar of salt? If it's the later, that could basically be saying a few things of varying degrees of intensity, as in she became ashen (as in when she looked back she froze in fear and the color drained from her body in absolute horror) to she became ashen, as in turned to ash from the intensity of the blaze because she forgone the field of protection that group was given...no one was allowed to bear direct witness to what happened and live to tell the tale sort of thing, or simply fear itself is the enemy of trust which would naturally and immediately lower her own state of energy and disconnect her from maintaining that vibrational/electromagnetic state with the others, mind over matter). In any case, this event happened just as it was written and we are still living in the same book, the same story as these people, so there's really no reason to doubt the rest. If she instantly transformed into actual salt, honestly I have no doubt at this point that it's possible somehow that we just don't yet understand and I'd rather not find out either. I don't think anything good could ever come from any process of scientific research that tries or succeeds in turning living matter to salt. Anton didn't even mention the pure sulfur balls found all over the region, a purity to which isn't even found naturally on earth. This whole area that was once lush and green and full of life was baked, fried, and poisoned in an instant, and that is horrifying enough. The Bible talks about this sort of destruction coming to pass again just as quickly as before, and if these meteors have a tendency to gravitate towards centers of the wickedly inclined and immorally based....tsk....welp. Probably wouldn't hurt to help an old lady cross the street or two, ya know? I'd rather not become an ingredient in the next Babylonian lasagna.

To me this one doesnt. I have studied torah for most of my life and sodom/gamora just fits the fable/lesson vs a real event. Jewish storytelling often talks of important real places as places you could come back to... often trauma induced unfortunately. Sodom is not one of those places mentioned again. Where as stories and lessons are more fiction to add flavor, very commonly only mentioned once or twice with inconsistancies. It was most likely a minor village that later became important after the iron age to draw attention away from Jerusalem.

This was first suggested at least 10 years ago. There was IMMENSE animus towards the idea by secular archeologists for some reason, but the evidence was just too strong.

@ks5553

The animus is because of the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis. Since the first published paper on that in 2007 they're fighting tooth and nail to discount it, because if proven true it will throw our entire idea about the beginning of civilization and human evolution (Neanderthol, Denisovian, Homo-Habilus etc.) into complete disarray, not to mention the mega-faunal extinctions and collapse of the last ice-age. It already has in many ways. But admitting what the evidence shows, means admitting they've all been wrong their whole career. And it's not really their fault. They are only human beings with paychecks and grants to protect, so it's a slow process. Anyway probably more than you wanted to know but that's why lol
