The fact that the "scientists" were afraid to admit that the site was caused by a "heat event" tells you all you need to know about the "objectivity" of scientists. God bless
Good scientists are afraid to admit anything. Not because they are anti-religion, but because scientific methods and philosophies encourage that even the slightest doubts be considered.
@@jake5952Scientists only believe what can be proven. Yet it's a simple fact that it's impossible to prove anything and everything. This is what holds scientists back from learning new ideology.
@@jake5952False. If that was the case then they would consider the doubt of the doubts that God exists. And maybe they would consider the evidence of the bible.

Youre not a good scientist if you follow the doubts. Youre a good scientist if you follow the evidence.
@@PolishBehemoth It's not the job of scientists to prove or disprove God. Believers believe even when there is no evidence of God.
@@PolishBehemoththe evidence shows there is no god and the universe is older then you zealots say it is
It’s interesting that we often consider biblical events to be outlandish while we’re living in one of the most depravedly outlandish times in history.
its the END TIMES, which 2 Thess 2 describes the sequence of events; the great falling away (we r in that now, with churches doing evil things); next comes the ID of the ac; then comes the rapture, then the great tribulation.
Right!
I live overseas and I’m constantly surprised about what I thought I knew about things before moving.
We live on a rock flying through space at 500000 mph it’s been outlandish since day one can’t wait till Jesus comes back
@@mclovinstunts6749that just sounds like bad karma. I’d imagine if you base your ideology off of reading a book that your enemies who do not understand good would obviously propagate an edited evil version of ‘your’ book and watch you destroy yourself.
If god spares the USA he owes Sodom and Gomorha an apology
The odds of two meteors large enough to not burn up in the atmosphere hitting two major metropolitan regions of the ancient world at roughly the same time is beyond astronomical. Even if that happened today people would call it an Act of God.
Would be more likely that it's a single object that partially broke up on re-entry, and the pieces rained down and two of those pieces happened to hit those places.
Depending on the size and composition of the object, combined with what the distance was between the impact sites, it's not *as* outlandish as it sounds.
It's not that hard to believe there opposite sides of the river not like other parts of the world.
Could it be the cities we're hit by energy weapons😊on precise targets? Time to get real.
youre right, but the odds of ONE splitting are much much higher...
That "act of God ..." is THE standard cop-out phrase beloved of insurance companies. But-
-if we are to actually take it seriously we should all be frantically suing God's agencies (churches, temples etc; there's oodles of them). No?
Why not~?
This is a Deadly WARNING. Not just archeology. A tiny tiny example of what WILL come.
Grow up, cultist. Leave bronze age superstition in the bronze age.
the messia will come back after the destruction, be happy it's only the signs and the pains of the king of kings and heavens return
don't get our hopes up.....
When should i stop working?
All honor and glory to God.
Interesting how the talk about Sodom and Gomorrah begins with a conference in San Francisco.
This was discovered by Ron Wyatt 30 some years ago. Wyatt is the discoverer. He has a museum in Tennessee where you can see the sulfur. Google Ron Wyatt sulfur.
The successor.
SF = Sodom
LA = Gomorrah
Was human waste one of the plagues?
Funny thing. In Soviet files that survived the shredder and where relased San Francisco was reffered as

@@jackbrown1969wow . interesting
Imagine if they actually found a random large lump of salt near outside the city
Worse, what if the salt has already been mined out and used to preserve food at some point in the past?
@@kyrridas1573well Lots wife would’ve been responsible for helping people eat😂😂
The pile would have scattered millennia ago, no chance
It has been some time since I have taken a deep dive into this, but I believe it is believed that the location of one of those cities stands currently under the Dead Sea. A team did an investigation of the bottom of the sea and found a large pillar of salt there. It was the only one down there and naturally an anomaly to have something like that there. Like I said this has been quite a while ago so I probably have this wrong, but it could be a good research point for someone reading this. If I think I remember where I may have watched this I'll comment it here
@@joelsweeney4024She wasn't turned into a "pile" of salt, she was made into a pillar. She didn't become a mound of table salt, she was made into a singular solid piece (like a statue). That said, you're right that there is virtually no chance it still stands. It was likely obliterated by the heat blast that destroys the two cities.
“The providence is in the timing”
Well said sir
I love that a byproduct of Divine work is a crystal we call "Trinitite".
Also the first atomic bomb tests were known as the “Trinity Tests”
Los Almos
Trinity is the code name for the first test of the Atomic bomb
@@efraim3364 Yeah, it's a nice coincidence.
Trinitite is only found at the trinity test site. What they found at Sodom is like trinitie in that it is melted. Trinitite is radioactive because of the fission reaction, the pottery at Sodom is not radioactive. It resembles trinitite in that the earth pottery was heated to such a high degree it melted. The pottery was melted by a natural cause, what caused trinitite was not.
I guess I’m weird, but the Sodom and Gamorra account was something that made perfect sense and raised no questions for me.
Absolutely,no question for me either 🙏
I mean we’re taught as kids that rocks fall from the sky and destroy stuff sometimes, and theologically we believe God can use natural disasters for his purposes.
You're not weird at all.
The weird one is the Dr for saying the story of Sodom and Gamorra was hard to believe for him at the time.
Like... The Bible literally says God made the universe and everything in it and this guy was taken back by a city being destroyed 😂
Now if only the cities of America can get Gommorrah'ed.
Yes, if you believe in God as He should be, all powerful, then He can do anything whether or not it can be explained with natural phenomenon or not. It doesn't matter if it is a meteor or not. He is the perfect super hero that has perfect powers to do anything.
I love that this information was presented at a conference in San Francisco, Ca.
Very funny !!!!
Lol!!!
😆🤣👍
Ironic
I missed that detail, rather interesting
I never doubted it. I knew this was discovered years ago, but this is the first time that I've heard an archaeologist say it or heard that skeletons were found.
I'm just curious what exactly it was since it seems like there would be some sort of crater of it was from a meteor
Is there any other case of a .error getting hot enough to form trinitite?
That was in a different place, this is Tell el-Hamman the other "discovery" was near to Masada.
air burst meteor (not meteorite, it didn't land)
@@raidzeromatt
@@raidzeromattThere is no crater, the meteor exploded before touching the ground
You might be thinking of Mohejo-Daro
I've read Dr. Collins book about his discovery. Very detailed, and biblical. Disovering the City of Sodom
---- and very panned by his peers - even those in his own clique over at Associates for Biblical Research
Ron Wyatt found it first
God's timing is perfect. These archeological digs, following actual modern scientific principles and being able to determine the actual chemistry of material, are proving the history of the Bible. The Dead Sea scrolls were found just as man was gaining enough technology to read them without destroying them. There will be no excuses on judgement day for being an atheist.
Bob Marley an hour ago you posted this? I was about to say the Lady of Guadalupe is another big atheist blowback LOL
Tbf you don’t know why these cities were destroyed. It could have been natural and god had nothing to do with it
@@PsiloGamingHell isn’t eternal burning. Jesus describes Hell as fire and brimstone because that is a very simple and easily understandable way to explain why you do not want to go there to ancient fishermen. What Hell is is the privation of God, and because all goodness is from God, Hell is without any goodness just as it is without God entirely. If you choose to live apart from God in the here and now, you will have to continue to live without him for eternity. The choice is yours, and that’s what mercy is.
@@jeremias-serus if it’s not a negative place then why is it bad? And why create souls in the first place?
@@PsiloGamingimagine believing that nothing created everything, science will be laughing at you. Also, when people commit mortal sins they DECIDE to burn forever and go to hell, God doesn't send them there

I am an engineer. And all through my life i have had to believe more and more the bible is true.
Every time, i find something that scientifically proves the bible is pure fact and truth. More than any book ive seen.
This hasn't scientifically proved anything. One faith based Archaeologist from a uncredited Christian college doesn't "Scientifically prove" anything. Surely you as an Engineer know that these things have to be published in a Peer reviewed Journal & accepted before this is classed as Scientific fact. It's just I've been here before in regards to this kinda thing & I've seen them sink without a trace.
@@nl5137 yeah. so :
1. i remember reading an article where science recently found that the most regenerative part of the human body capable of re-growing tissues is the rib.... from the side of a man. and according to the bible, when God wanted to take a part of Adam to create the woman, he took the rib and from the side. precisely where science says is the most regenerative part. and this was written thousands of years ago.
2. ever before humans knew about germs and quarantine, the bible had already talked about quarantining sick people (Leviticus 13:46).
3. God told the Israelites to build houses at height using railings which engineers have come to realise the wisdom for. (Deuteronomy 22:8) though this was thousands of years in a primitive era.
4. the wheels of pharaohs chariots have been found in the red sea (find here... czcams.com/video/d90NM9tgDQE/video.html )
5. unlike popular opinion, deep study of the the scriptures reveal that Adam and eve were NOT the first on this earth. and that before Adam, there was a catastrophic event. where the earth became null and void (genesis 1:2). which science also confirms.
6. archeologists have discovered solomons chariot cities in detail as described. and the destruction egypt brought on the cananite cities exactly as described.
7. over 200 predictions of the bible fulfilled including the rise of alexander the greek king and the demise of his empire being divided into 4. exactly what happened in detail.
there are so many i have to sit and recollect them all.
I am the tooth-fairy. And I'm only joining this thread to watch you completely fail at providing a single real-world example.
@@johnmichaelson9173Even peer review wouldn't prove it. There was an article for the airburst model - not the Sodom claim - which may be pending a retraction that did make it through Scientific Reports. "Peer review" usually means that a handful of related experts thought a paper was worth publishing and didn't suffer from any obvious major defects. It's not an endorsement. In this case, peer review does not appear to have included anyone from the very narrow and highly-specialized expertises involved, and it's up for retraction given, for example, the inclusion of altered photos.
Not really related to this topic, but a lot of BS makes it through peer review.
@@jesseparrish1993 It's impossible to prove something that didn't happen. At the minimum, going through other Archaeologists means they're giving an honest answer to this man's claims based on factual events & not believing it because of their faith. Tens minutes on Google & you'll find the answers in regard to all these claims.
The cross on the microphone makes me happy.
What's really neat is it's clearly a light reflection, but still forms a cross.
I love it when archaeologists find artifacts that prove the Bible as a true and factual source.
Jesus said that if His people don’t praise Him “the rocks will cry out.” The rocks are crying out!
You know how ancient people tell their stories. They exaggerate. 😂
The Bible retells ancient stories but a lot of details are lost in translation, it's not 100% accurate. Leading to confusion due to a lot of actual facts being distorted over time and translation.

Amen. Doubt presupposes certainty.God is greater than our faithlessness.
If you are born again / baptised / spiritually set free from sin by the transcendent innocent blood and sinless flesh of Yeshua/Jesus Christ, the sacrificial lamb for our sins, how can you doubt anything?!
*”25 And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.*
*26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.*
*27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!”*
*_Matthew 8:25-27_*
*”21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.*
*22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”*
*_Matthew 21:21-22_*
*”1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.*
*2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.*
*3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.*
*4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.*
*5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.*
*6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”*
*_Hebrews 11:1-6_*
I like the cross that light makes on the microphone 😊
Praise the Lord.
The Sunday school class was learning about Lot and his wife. The teacher was describing that when Lot’s wife looked back at Sodom, she turned into a pillar of
salt, when Bobby interrupted. “My mommy looked back once while she was driving”, he announced, “and she turned into a telephone pole”.
Dark, too dark. 😂
Lmao 🤣😂🤣
So she got turned into a landline.
Not meteorites bc they make craters, there were no craters. The Tunguska event left a huge crater, even little meteors make little craters. If it has to align with a natural event, then it most likely would be a solar flare, but then again the precision of only two cities, I go with the “hand of God” just like the Bible says.
Bunch of BS. You are amused by asswipe academia. Its a lie.
It's funny that you never hear about finds like this on the news. It's almost like they *really* don't want people to know about the archaeological, scientific, and historical evidence for the Bible's validity. Almost like that.
You are absolutely correct, because Satan does not want people to know he exists, and that God exists as well. Satan is the prince of this earth.
Who controls the media around the planet ? Evil
You obviously don't pay much attention to the news, the evidence of a meteor impact at the Tall el-Hammam excavations was widely reported a couple of years ago.
Fully agreed. Where I see this is in some of the reactions I get when posting a scriptural reference at the end of a CZcams comment.
There are those who will lash out in anger or snarkiness in reaction to the particular scripture. The depth of emotions tells me these are more than just human reactions.
Its all BS. Just teach yourselves and stop depending on masticated false doctrines and stupid theories of reprobate dr and professors. Used car salesmen in a charlatan suit
Excellent analysis brilliant interview !
It’s Powerful and scary at the same time how accurately spot on the Bible is 😮 🙏🏽
That's one of the main reasons why I see the Bible as a history book. Also when time lines don't have the first seven days they're off track.
It isn't scary at all when you understand what the entire Bible is about, which is Jesus Christ; God in the flesh, came to earth to deliver you to salvation from your sins against the Almighty God so you may live forever in perfect peace and joy with Him.
Belive in Christ the Redeemer and His gospel (the good news).
it's almost like when you're looking for something specific, anything you find appears to be proof of what you're looking for
"Flying scrolls of fire" sounds an awful lot like "Intercontinental Ballistic Missile".

Expedition Bible is a really good channel to follow. Highly recommend
I think I’ve seen it: if it’s the video I think it was great, 1970’s-early 80’s.
Only a few years ago, archaeologists reported the evidence of a meteorite airburst that "vaporized" an ancient city in the Dead Sea area.
Thank you. This was well done.
Ron Wyatt discovered sulphur balls in the area around Sodom. Ron Wyatt discovered a lot of unique stuff and was ridiculed by so called experts. Ron was proven to be correct in the fullness of time.
Isn't it annoying that these "archaelogisrs" claims to have discovered Sodom and gomorrah: because Ron is not an archaeologist. Thank God that the Turkish people recognised Ron's discovery. How are these people able to blatantly lie about it, and act so proud about it too. Credit should be given where credit is due..
Sorry, he's still fully discredited.
Ron Wyatt conveniently could provide no evidence. Loses or gets stolen the purported evidence.
Man I’m so glad I found your comment I was literally about go on a full page rant…Ron Wyatt found more than just this site 😢 God bless you all …and it was destroyed by sulfur balls if you go to the site it’s literally covered in them and these guys and their snide comments are so irritating 😡

Psalm 37:10-11
This is pretty cool stuff! Great video
This was such a good episode
There's also a really good documentary on Jericho. It basically says that an army was waiting outside the walls when an earthquake occurred and made a ramp so the army could go up into the city and destroy it. They dated it to the time of Joshua at the exact time of year the Bible says it should have occurred.
How could that be "..a really good documentary.." when it's errant? The Word of the Almighty Creator says different as to how the city state was destroyed.
@senatorjosephmccarthy2720 no, the bible clearly states the city fell to the ground level, which is the ancient Hebrew way of saying what we would later (in European historiology) describe as a breach, ramp or siege ramp. In Jericho's case the wall was brought down and formed, as a collapsed wall does, a double sided "ramp" or breach, allowing full access to the city and destroying the defenders who were on said wall.
Personally I suspect the fall of Jericho had to do with Natural Frequency Resonance. We only recently have understood that all structures have a natural frequency and can cause collapse if overwhelmed. The account of the fall of Jericho is oddly specific in the order and timing of a number of frequency variables. Even down to the red cord as it's possible it disrupted the frequencies just enough to prevent catastrophic failure of that one section.
@@altorinsyou new agers are insane.
@@PCMRvsconsole first how exactly am I insane and second what the hell is a new ager and what make you think I am one? I simply made an observation. Natural Resonance frequency is very much a real thing, and God frequently uses natural elements to accomplish his will. That in no way limits or takes away from the fact that it was a divine miracle, in fact it does the opposite. I am also not saying that God used this specific method. It's just a theory that I have, developed directly from the patterns that God himself has set within scripture.
I had a National Geographic magazine from 1978 where there was an archeological dig at a place I believe was in Syria. Where they found a huge number of tablets dating to the bronze age, in these records were biblical names as well as mention of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, so the historical reality of these cities has been known for quite some time. If you are interested the place they were uncovering was called Ebla and it was a major city state and a trading empire of the time.
This demonstrates that the authors knew the names of ancient cities, which is not surprising since it was written long ago. It does not lend credence to the stories. In the same way Spider-Man taking place in new York city, which is a real city, does not provide evidence that there is a Spider-Man.
@@billjohnson9472So those biblical names and place names, including Sodom and Gomorrah, were inscribed in the Bronze Age and eventually unearthed SO THAT fans of today's superheroes could "uninscribe" them at will or at their whim. You could do that. An archaeologist you are not.
@@sarahyip2825 You arent making any sense. The authors wrote the names of ancient cities into their stories. Most of the cities have continued to be inhabited up to today. It only means that the authors knew the names of these ancient cities.
@@billjohnson9472 I think you're missing the point of these archeological finds. You're right that they do not, in themselves, prove that the biblical stories are true. But they provide support that indicates that they were written by someone within a region and time period, by someone who would have been in a position to know about certain events. There have been plenty of modern people who thought Sodom and Gomorrah were not real cities at all, just part of an entirely mythical story. These tablets prove that they did exist, and the writers of the bible lived in a time and place when the memory of them was still relatively recent, especially since, unlike other ancient cities, they did not continue to be inhabited throughout the following millennia. The archeological findings they discussed in this video don't prove that they were destroyed by an act of God, but they do show that the ancient account does line up with actual historical events in several key ways. Since ancient writers didn't have the same incredible access to information we do, made-up stories were much more likely to get details wrong, especially chronological anachronisms (like using names from their own time period rather than the period the story was supposed to take place in) and hyperbole, where the story grew bigger and more unbelievable over time. So these findings simply bolster the reliability of the ancient writers of the bible. It shows that they were accurate in key details, which makes it more likely that they are accurate in those details we haven't been able to corroborate yet.
@@billjohnson9472 Perhaps I should be a little more specific as to the reason for those names being mentioned was in relation to commercial activity or matters of state; which clearly proves the cities are not legendary or mythological in any way, but as existing contemporaneously with the Eblaite kingdom. Unless of course they collectively had decided to construct imaginary cities which they would pretend were real and would fraudulently record all of their dealings with. That would be a theory truly worthy of a blinded by their own prejudices radical skeptic. But that is really beside my point, I wasn't referring to the Genesis record as to whether or not the events it refers to happened the way the scripture records them, simply to the historicity of the cities themselves.
Absolutely astonishing
Thank you. Outstanding
Even as a Christian, I can imagine fire and brimstone matching the description of a meteor/meteors
Yeah I’m fairly agnostic, but the way academia squirms against anything that remotely corroborates the Bible is awfully suspect
Like these things don’t need to be mutually exclusive
I would of liked to hear more details behind the meteor argument in the video. That would give us the full picture.
I have watched a lot of videos on CZcams about Sodom and Gomorrah and people that visit there and they found balls of sulfur that you can still light on fire they said they had tested it and it's the purists forms of sulfur found anywhere in the world
Ron Wyatt discovered the real Sodom and Gomorrah over 40 years ago. There are little sulfur balls all over the site.
Please check it out here on CZcams.
Heard they found the purest form of sulfur there too. God's word always proves itself.
Love Dr Bergsma’s talks… I always learn so much 🙏🏻
Thanks for the info and for where to find more!
So nice to see real scientists take this seriously and prove it really happened
"real" scientists are rare or very silent or both.
What they tell the Christian audience & what they publish in peer reviewed journals are two different things. These two are being so economical with the truth it's shameful.
Real Scientists have said that the Pottery discovered at Tell el-Hamman that's supposed to be melted by fire & brimstone comes from a Kiln & it's been mistakenly identified by Dr Collins team.
This is actually disinformation. Truth mixed with lies.
They didn’t prove anything. He Whispered to a few ppl.
The meteor thing totally fits the event. And, other cultures mention Sodom and Gamora being wiped out like he said it is one of those things so ghastly that everyone remembers.
pretty amazing how now that technology and accessibility are advancing, we're starting to see the shared experience of global human history and how myths/legends/religions were heavily influenced/impacted by real life events
No, it doesn't fit the event. This was a thermal event. A meteor would have exploded, creating a concussive event. Look at the meteor that exploded over Chelyabinsk Oblast. There very much was a concussion. Sure, with the advance of the heat wave, there will be some rarefaction, but that's nothing compared to the detonation of a meteor.
That's because they weren't meteors, they were balls of sulphur(brimstone). That whole area is covered with sulphur to this day.......some of it still in ball form. There are videos of this on location. The guy in the video even picks up balls of sulphur. Also, nothing grows there. Even the soil was tested and found to be completely void of bacteria. The Bible said that nothing will ever live there again.@@RobouteGuilliman-M41

Appreciate the interview. Thanks for adding archeological support to what is a believable Biblical account.

Amazing 🙏 Thank you!
Fascinating! I never in my recollection doubted the existence or destruction of S &G, but this certainly adds to the historical narrative of the Bible.
Except that the names literally translate into buried, and burned. Suggesting that they were named for the condition found. Not the other way round.
No. No, it does not. It MIGHT add to the 'historicity' of the story of the destruction of the site- and that's all. Similar sites have been discovered elsewhere, NOT even discussed in the bible.
Also, if this site was not taken out by a celestial event, a question: why would a supernatural 'supreme being' need to result to a nuclear blast? Xtian apologists ate REALLY scraping the bottom of the barrel to a truly ridiculous degree. Just stop; get help!

We had a discussion today about Lot's wife. I wondered why she specifically became a pillar of salt. Now I know. Great information!
She never did, because it‘s impossible. Also this story was stolen directly from ancient Greek mythology - Orpheus and Euridyce.
Understood, but if God does exist and the supernatural counterintuitive is possible - is it possible that it actually did happen? I'm aware of the Greek story, glad this was written in either case to warn us about her fatal error.@@MisterK9739
God exists outside of time and space where anything is possible. And he loves you.
@@MisterK9739 Those two stories have nothing in common. How do you connect them?
@@Guciom In both cases someone tries to rescue their wife and is not allowed to look back (at what they love most). In one case the woman gets send back to Hades, on another she gets turned into a pillar of salt (reasons for salt could me manyfold, most likely geographical and cultural aspects).
But yeah in both cases people try to save sth from a calamaty and are not allowed to look back. Both do, both get punished. It´s the same lesson/wisdom in both stories.
Very awesome vid!! Iv never disbelieved the account in the bible but to have physical evidence is super cool!!
Eric Metaxas in his book, "Is Atheism Dead?" spends an entire chapter on this discovery of the Sodom site and the archeological uncovering of all the evidence supporting the Biblical account. It's a fascinating read. It has helped me to get a better "grip" on the historical event and how that got "translated" into what we read in Genesis.
Yes I read that book it’s excellent.
The real Sodom and Gomorrah was discoverd by Ron Wyatt over 40 years ago.
Kingkong worshippers are very much alive and thriving, unfortunately.
What did it say in regards to the story?
@@bradprice8040 If you're interested, I'd recommend the Metaxas book. It's full of amazing new scientific discoveries that point to the possibility of a Creator instead of the dreary atheism that mostly controlled the scientific narrative back in the '80's. It's a great read. There are two other books that are somewhat similar. One is "The Case for a Creator" by Lee Strobel, and the other is "The Privileged Planet" by Gonzalez and Richards." That last one (TPP) is pretty technical, while the Strobel book is by an investigative reporter and is very readable.
I met Steven Collins! He presented in sodom and gomorrah at our church and gave this exact information. It was wild and cool
He was a very good boxer in his time, too.

I keep hearing more and more archeological finds in recent years that align perfectly with the history of the Bible. I wish they would update and reprint The Archeological Study Bible.
All I can say is WOW! As a believer, I take the Bible by faith, but seeing things like this is so amazing. Our faith turning to sight. I've been studying this topic for the last couple weeks and finding this video makes my day. Great info here!
I commend your enthusiasm but beg you look at your "proofs" more closely. Sulphur was found in the area and there are no brimstone-producing volcanoes here where most people think Sodom & Gomorrah were. If you were to go North and visit the cities where many believe Abraham was born, though, there is a very pesky volcano not far to the Northeast whose crater we can see from space.
And how did you determine this guy wasn’t lying?
@@HistoritorJimaldus Which guy?
@@BeardVsTheWorldUK1 the guy in the video repeating the purported claims/findings
@@HistoritorJimaldus I never said anyone lied, sir. I'm trying to show that most experts incorrectly assume the location of many Bible stories to be close to Jordan, or not far from from today's Israel, or even in Egypt. If you look at the beginning of the Bible, and further into the OT, you'll find one reference after another to volcanoes. See: pillar of smoke in the Exodus story, for example. This could only have been the case if the early Hebrews had been in an area where there were volcanoes. Egypt has none. Neither does Jordan or Israel, at least not any that have played a significant role in the formation of anyone's culture. Up North, however: Moses' own wife was Midian: see Mitanni Empire. If you Google it you'll see this was located around Lake Van, and on the western side of the lake is volcano with the massive crater I mentioned above. I could give a dozen more examples but this is already too long.
Archeological digs have found sulfur balls all over the area where these 2 cities were. When lighted they burn very hot. The amazing fact is the sulfur balls are not found in other areas.
That' simply not true, the Archaeologists who worked on this dig at Tall el-Hamman won't say this is 100% Sodom, it's from around that time, give or take one hundred years, it's kinda in the area, give or take 50 miles but that's about it. I get fed up with people like this guy, you'd think it was 100% true but when you actually study up on the Archaeologists who worked on the dig, it's really disappointing because it's not 100% factual. They can't prove anything other than it's an Early, Intermediate, Middle Bronze age & early Iron age dig. Israel/Jordan are full of them.
Not to mention there's no destruction on the level described at all@@johnmichaelson9173

The late Ron Wyatt discovered this some 30years ago. I’ve been to his museum in Tennessee seen the actual sulfur balls more pure than anywhere on the earth.
*edit* allegedly Wyatt’s discoveries are a little to the south of where this is being reported.
It annoying that most never gives Ron any credit for his discoveries. Gomorrah is ashes. A Rood Awakening has many videos with pictures and a series called AD and many carry on Ron's work.
Ron was south of the dead sea and mentioned the north side.All he found was sulpher balls and ash and Wyatt Archeology gives credit for 1st discovery to Dr.Melvin kyle who published his findings in 1928.Dr Collins has made an epic 1st with nobody close finding bodies melted in half,walls and nuclear glass pottery on the North side of the dead sea.. Ron focused on the south.Not 1st
But how are those pure balls of sulfur generated by a meteorite impact ? A night time impact would've been spectacular , two massive impacts even moreso. Were the meteors rich in sulphur ? Did they blast it out of the ground ?
Can large meteors penetrate so deep into the Earths crust that they can cause a volcanic eruption ?
@@aaronhumphrey2009 Maybe, just maybe they were part of the payload of an advanced weapon. No different than cluster munitions used today but these was a combo platter of nuclear-thermal weapon meets almost pure sulfur "which doesn't exist in any purer natural form on earth. Certainly beings throughout time have sided with and against different races and such nuclear type blasts sites can be found in India/Pakistan. Ancient Indian texts even speak of flying ships, Vamana's.
@@aaronhumphrey2009 That is a question that may be answered in Dr Collins book...they have discovered so much already..the measured angle of the impact..etc...God said he would destroy it and now we are deconstructing how.

Even if you don’t necessarily believe in the supernatural aspects of the Bible. The historical and archeological aspects of it can be quite fascinating. A lot of it features past fallen empires and key historical figures
After all it is a collection of minimum 66 books (Protestant,catholic,orthodox bibles all have atleast the base 66) that were written in ancient times, wether is be letters, poetry, proverbs, or accounts

Kings reads like game of thrones no joke it's fascinating history. David had sauls 5 grandsons killed and hung up as a warning to anyone who could challenge his throne. They don't teach you that in bible school
It is hard to understand why, with all the evidence (not just archeologically), I don't understand how people can dismiss the truth and the God of the Bible.
@@kepigal running from your own guilt is definitely a factor I have seen when I debate some.
I read that paper. This hypothesis also explains Lot’s wife. When a bolide explodes, it releases a thermal shockwave in all directions capable of instantly desiccating any living being within its blast radius. But after a certain distance, the effect happens only if it hits it directly, unobstructed. It’s reasonable to suppose that Lot and his daughters had a hill or cliff wall between them and the blast, but that Lot’s wife, having turned around for a last, longing look, was line-of-sight at the moment the shockwave hit.
This tale is borrowed from Ovid's Metamorphoses. Google search....Zeus and Hermes visit Philemon and Baucis.
Ezekiel 16.49 explains more.
The 2 angles that made/erged them to leave the city, protected them from any harm, the same way that they also blinded the people, who wanted to have sexual relations with the 2 angles themselves.
@@davidlake3471 *angels

It truly is not necessary to try to find an empirical explanation for this. Turning one person and not the others into a pillar of salt is indeed a supernatural event, and thats ok. Most of what God did and does is supernatural and not empirical.
@@mnhorsewoman
Good, God is not the author of confusion = Satan (winter) us the author of the bible.
I read an article years ago about Zoroastrian priests in what is now Persia/Iran who would observe meteorological events and star-chart as part of their socio-religio practices. Apparently, some scrolls were found from said priests from that particular time period of a substantial meteorological event, like a meteor shower observed close to the Dead Sea region that would have correlated with the S and G time frame and events. This would seem to make sense with a quasi-nuclear type event that would produce such a massive destructive force
It's amazing how these guys can talk about this and not mention Ron Wyatt's name once. He discovered the true location in the 80s. Footsge of the sulpher balls and ash city.
100% agree! 👊
The problem is, when you mention Ron Wyatt, you _instantly_ create a bunch of bad PR, doubt, backlash, and naysayers because of Wyatt's reputation. That's why people avoid using his name, to avoid all that negativity. if they can present information like this _without_ using Wyatt's name, then they are less likely to have naysayers.

I used to go on patrol with the Israeli army in the same area. We carried a lod of wood to build bonfires at night. One night I wandered away from the fire and it was a full moon night. When I looked down at the ground it shimmered in the night. I was puzzled and reaching down my hand,I scooped up a handful of shiny stars. Then I tasted it with the tip of my tongue and it was pure salt.This whole mountain was made out of salt! When I told the other soldiers sitting around the campfire,then they laughed and sais," Welcome to Sodom and Gomorrah, the land of salt!!"
Man, that would've freaked me out, once they told you that you were standing on Sodom and Gomorrah!!
@stripedrajang3571 What freaked me out was thr giant Mt of salt! I couldn't believe it. I climbed as far as I could, tasting the salt about every 10 yards. The next day the guide lead us into a system of caves that smugglers used. It was filled with skeletons that had been killed in gun battles. It was like Indiana Jones. In the end they left there as a border guard. I didn't know what to do. All of the caves ended in this collasal room that you see in the Ranbow movie where Ranbow went to Afghanistan. It was so big that I made a camp in one secluded corner where I could keep quiet and hear the sounds of anybody entering it. It was pretty weird and spooky.
@@stefanhall3219, the skeletons in the cave, were they from average sized men, or much, MUCH taller?
@stripedrajang3571 The skeletons were quite normal like Indiana Jones. They were all over the place and they had been there for years. It was evident that they had been there for many years. There were a lot of traffic . I had a couple of encounters where I did not engage,but only reported and tracked.
@stefanhall3219 , the reason I asked, is because in the land of Canaan, when God ordered the Israelites to destroy the people, most of the people there were giants! And the giants were running and hiding into many caves as well.
There's a lot of awesome archeological discoveries that relate to the Bible.

After spending the last three years discovering similar truths about similarly unbelievable biblical events, I can truly relate to the shock and surprise felt when discovering that Sodom probably happened in a way similar to the way described in the Bible. Fascinating!
Sole events in the bible are based on historical events, like the plagues, the exodus, Jesus of Nazareths existence.
That does by no means imply that everything else is correct. Every work of fiction is based around a piece of truth, every religion is based around sth unexplainable and/or some piece of wisdom.
But Mose never split the red sea, god didn‘t smite any newborn children and Sodom was not destroyed because they inhabitants were living too freely and lavishly. That‘s the difference between science and belief: science does not make unbased assumptions
Yeah of course handing the blame of a meteorite over to a supposedly "god" !
@@jimmyc974 Whether or not you personally believe in god/God is immaterial. My co-author can show that this catastrophe, and others like it-the Tower of Babel and Noah's Flood, for example-happened the way the Bible says they did. Whether you attach God/god to these events is entirely up to the reader, and those experiencing the event.
Amazingly accurate that Bible!

You know what this reminds me of: Chelyabinsk.
In 2013 there was an event where a meteor exploded above the Russian city of Chelyabinsk. Had the meteor fallen for more than 5 more minutes the proximity of the explosion would have destroyed the city in a fireball whose explosive power would have been greater than that of the Hiroshima bomb.
God wouldn't need an actual nuke to do this. Just a big enough rock exploding at just the right altitude at just the right angle would have done it.
EDIT: something else of note is that the residents of Chelyabinsk and the surrounding areas reported a smells of sulfur, gunpowder, and other "burning odors" that started occurring roughly an hour after the explosion and that said smells lasted all day.
Why would God require a "rock". Why not just blast em?

It was a convenient way to convert a large mass into energy very quickly.
Why is God subject to mass energy equivalences when is directly responsible for its creation. Why can he not simple enact his will and not use a meteorite?@@chaz706
My one thing to say against it being a metor. As in one big meteor that blows up and does it (a shower of many small ones Is different, and plausible) is that lots wife was turned to a pillar of salt because she looked back, but lot, and the rest of the family did not look back so they weren't harmed.
If I was some effect of a giant meteor explosion that turned her into salt, the same would have been done to the rest of them given they would have been all in the same proximity.
This is why I think that even if a meteor was present it wasn't the whole shebang of the judgment. There had to be some unambiguously supernatural elements to the fire god reigned down to destroy those cities.
@@anthonypolonkay2681 as dumb as it may sound... there are some things God does that are beyond normal scientific causes. We call them Miracles.

No wonder the angel said ‘do not look back’ cus don’t you go blind from seeing a nuclear explosion without protection for even a short period?
When men guided by fear silence the tongue of one man, the words of that one man must be the truth.

There are also videos of a dude on youtube finding sulphur and lighting it on fire. It was in the sand and cliff walls. Said this doesn't exist on earth in this form anywhere but there.
There's a video of a guy who took samples out of the dirt and ignited it with a flame and it burned like a match. He claimed it was sulfur as it burned like sulfur and smelled like it when it burned. He said there is small deposits of sulfur imbedded all over in that area.

I know the evidence as presented here is convincing, but the sulfur aspect tells us that someone has erred. These people, that city, was much farther North, in southeastern Turkey, where there's a moody volcano whose crater we can see from space.

I've always heard "Without question there can be no faith." and to hear the "questionable: things from the Old Testament/Torah being discovered only strengthens my faith. People want to say "Oh that never happened!" then archeologists discover something and only confirm what scripture says.
Except, he's completely incorrect. If you go over the stratigraphy of the site, one area is burned, probably in the 7th century BCE, but the rest is untouched.
It struck me that he said no other sources has Sodom and Gomorrah story? Is there and source of cities under other names “burning up” during this time?
Yeah because the fact that a historical city turns up in the bible (under a different name) definitely proves all of the other bogus that happened.
