We are not sure where the land of "Nod" was located, except we are told that it was on the east of Eden (Genesis 4:16). It all depends on where the Garden of Eden was located as there is some dispute on that.

Do the Ebla Tablets confirm the existence of Sodom and Gomorrah?
Of course the existence of Sodom and Gomorrah is indeed confirmed by these tablets. The fact that they are set in an earlier time cannot be at all relevant logically to the later time of Abraham as they cannot possibly speak of an event which had not yet occurred when they were written viz. the destruction of these cities which is also confirmed by other data. Nor can any logical deduction be made nor any need be to 'shift' Abraham to an earlier time since the tablets make no reference to Abraham but only to the existence of Sodom and Gomorrah at the time when they were written.
What happened to Lot after Sodom and Gomorrah?
Though archaeologists doubt the existence of these cities, according to the Bible they were very real (Jude 7, Matthew 10:15; 11:21-24, Romans 9:27-29, Jeremiah 50:40) and situated along the SE boundary of Canaan (Genesis 10:19; 13:12) located at the Low Plain of Siddim. (Genesis 14:2, 3). Many people believe that the original sites now lie submerged beneath the waters of the Dead Sea, while others feel that the ruins of the cities may be among the wadis to the East and SouthEast of the Dead Sea.-Genesis 13:12;The cities were not rebuilt. They remain in ruins and the cities abandoned to this day. Their present day names are Bab edh-Dhra (Sodom), and Numeira, (Gomorrah).ANOTHER ANSWER:Moses' inspired and recorded account of what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah "became an example" for the world's societies today."Moses was with the assembly of God's people in the wilderness. He was the mediator between the people of Israel and the angel who GAVE HIM Life-Giving Words on Mount Sinai TO PASS ON TO US." (Acts 7:38 NLT New Living Translation)"...Noah [and Enoch - see Jude 1:14-15] warned the world of God's Righteous Judgment. Then God destroyed the whole world of ungodly people with a vast flood. Later, He turned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into heaps of ashes and swept them off the face of the earth. He MADE THEM AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO UNGODLY PEOPLE. But at the same time, God rescued Lot out of Sodom because he was a good man who was sick of all the immorality and wickedness around him. Yes, he was a Righteous man who was distressed by the wickedness he saw and heard day after day." (II Peter 2:5-8 NLT)Sodom and Gomorrah are an "example" for our society to know and understand that all of our actions, works, thoughts and deeds shall come under the Judgment of our Creator.They are an example for those who "believe it NOW" and conduct themselves accordingly. And it will be the shock of a lifetime to the rest… the vast majority of mankind, living and dead… then, resurrected from their graves - to have the LORD "open the books of the Bible" [Rev.20:12] in front of them on Judgment day, to measure their deeds and show them the Scriptures cited above, and more.Then the Truth of God's Word will be made known to all people: "…and the Egyptians [and every nation] shall know the LORD in that Day…" (Isa.19:21).And there will be no more unbelievers in the world.So Noah and Enoch warned their generations of God's coming Judgment… and few believed them; until the flood took them out.And Jesus reveals that in the last days of God's plan [at the time of the end], the world would regress back to Noah's day in wickedness, ungodliness… and the Sodom and Gomorrah mentality [Matt.24:37]. You know… like the way the world is today.And, sure enough… not that many folks today believe. Yet, Sodom and Gomorrah's example remains extant for any who choose to believe, to avoid a certain "future shock" on the Day of Judgment. The same Judgment Noah and Enoch warned people about."If a village doesn't welcome you or listen to you, shake off the dust of that place from your feet as you leave. I assure you, the wicked cities of Sodom and Gomorrah will be BETTER OFF on the Judgment Day than that place will be." (Matt.10:14-15 NLT)"And you people of Capernaum [and New York, and Paris, and London…], will you be exalted in heaven? No, you will be brought down to the place of the dead. For if the miracles I did for you had been done in Sodom, it would still be here today. I assure you, Sodom will be better off on the Judgment Day than you." (Matt.11:23-24 NLT)Jesus believed Sodom and Gomorrah existed. And He will make sure everyone who has ever lived and died will, too. In the Judgment.

Did God destroy a whole city of gays?
Jewish answer No. Nowhere in the Bible does it say anything like that. In fact, According to the Hebrew Bible, the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were not destroyed because of gay people. Isaiah 1 The entire first chapter is an utter condemnation of Judah. They are repeatedly compared with Sodom and Gomorrah in their evildoing and depravity. Throughout the chapter, the Prophet lists many sins of the people: rebelling against God, lacking in knowledge, deserting the Lord, idolatry, engaging in meaningless religious ritual, being unjust and oppressive to others, being insensitive to the needs of widows and orphans, committing murder, accepting bribes, etc. There is no reference to homosexuality or to any other sexual activities at all. Jeremiah 23:14 Among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen something horrible: They commit adultery and live a lie. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one turns from his wickedness. They are all like Sodom to me; the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah." Jeremiah compares the actions of the prophets with the adultery, lying and evil of the people of Sodom. Homosexual activity is not mentioned. Ezekiel 16:49-50 "Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen." God states clearly that he destroyed Sodom's sins because of their pride, their excess of food while the poor and needy suffered; sexual activity is not even mentioned. Christian Answer It wasn't just because of gays. He destroyed a whole city that was doing sin, meaning homosexuality, killing, stealing, and other stuff like that.
