‘Wiped Out In The Blink Of An Eye’: Archaeologist Claims He Has Found The Biblical City Of Sodom

An archaeologist claimed in an interview published in late June that he has identified the ancient Biblical site where Sodom once stood.

Trinity Southwest University’s Dean of Archaeology Steven Collins told host of the Rosenberg Report, Joel C. Rosenberg, that he and his team believe the Tell el-Hammam site in Jordan appears to have many of the markers of Sodom. The site is reportedly scattered with Bronze-age remains that appear to have been melted in a “flash heat” situation, matching the Biblical account of how Sodom burned to the ground.

“As soon as we get a few centimeters into that [Bronze Age] matrix, this piece of pottery, the shoulder of a storage jar, is facing up at us. And it looks like it’s glazed,” Collins told Rosenberg. Another member of Collins’ team remarked that the scars looked similar to those witnessed at the Trinity nuclear test site in New Mexico where the first atomic bomb was detonated.

Previous reports on the site suggest that the site was decimated by a meteor-impact some 4,000-years-ago. This cataclysm has yet to be confirmed, but evidence shows a “charcoal-rich destruction layer” and a series of melted objects, according to a study published in Nature.

The study suggested that the site was “wiped out in the blink of an eye,” Collins noted.

He went on to claim that “there are at least 25 known pieces of geography [in Scripture] that you can triangulate between to take you to the city of Sodom.” For example, Genesis 13:10 states that when Lot was at Bethel and Ai, he traveled eastwards. Tall el-Hammam is east of Bethel and Ai.

They found Provincetown? Isn’t that Sodom?

That photo’s supposed to be of the city of Sodom? I’ve seen high school properties bigger than that....

There is no doubt that Ron Wyatt discovered/verified Sodom and Gomorrah. Same goes for Noah’s Ark (later further verified by John Larsen’s deeper subsurface scans). We will also soon see that he found the Ark of the Covenant. The lawless won’t see it coming until it’s too late for them.

We are very similar. Christians have no idea what’s coming. They are content to believe in OSAS/OJAJ, and in so doing, completely disregard God’s command to obey Him (and no penalty if they don’t...). I’m still in amazement at a comment by one of those “Christians” when she stated that God’s law is only for those UNSAVED.

1 Peter 4:17For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 18And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 19Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
