Best Answer

it represents a city of abomination which God highly hates. The city was destroyed for its sexual lewdness notably (homosexuality). The people that lived there were referred to as "sodomites". If you define the word "sodomy"- it is defined as anal or oral copulation with a member of the same or opposite sex; also: copulation with an animal. In The Bible God say" If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination shall be put to death. That city was put to death and completely remove from the earth. There are speculations that Sodom and Gomorah is buried in the "Dead Sea".
