Sodom and Gomorrah (/ˈsɒdəm ... ɡəˈmɒrə/) were two biblical 📖 cities destroyed by God for their wickedness.Their story parallels the Genesis flood narrative in its theme of God's anger provoked by man's sin (see Genesis 📖 19:1–28).They are mentioned frequently in the prophets and the New Testament as symbols of human wickedness and divine retribution, and the Quran 📖 also contains a version of the story about the two cities.The narrative of their destruction may have a relation to the remains of third-millennium BC Bronze Age cities in the region, and subsequent 📖 homosexuals, and sodomy, which is used in a legal context under the label "crimes against nature" to describe anal or oral sex (particularly homosexual) and bestiality. This is based upon exegesis of the biblical text interpreting divine judgment upon Sodom and Gomorrah as punishment for the sin of homosexual sex. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodom_and_Gomorrah
