[[File:Pieter Schoubroeck - De verwoesting van Sodom en Gomorra.jpg|thumb|right|Destruction of the city of Gomorrah]]
'''Gomorrah''' was an ancient city located in the [[Middle East|Holy Lands]]. It was considered by [[bible]] scholars to be the sister city of another populated area known as [[Sodom]]. Both cities were destroyed by [[God]] according the Book of [[Genesis]] in the Bible. According the [[Bible]], God rained burning hot lava onto the city from the sky, and killed all of the inhabitants because of their [[sin]]. Those who were found to be righteous, [[Lot]] and his family, were told to flee before the city was destroyed and to not look back. Lot's wife looked back and was turned into a pillar of [[salt]].
