Was sodom in the land of nod?

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. Many scholars believe the Garden of Eden was located somewhere in the Tigris-Euphrates country above the Persian Gulf. If so "Nod would have been east of there. Sodom on the other hand is believed to be at the southern end of the Dead Sea and now covered by water. By looking at a map the two places "Nod" and "Sodom" are approximately 1000 miles apart.


Where is the land of Nod nowadays?

The Land of Nod (Hebrew: 'eretz-Nod‎) is a place in the Book of Genesis of the Hebrew Bible, located "to the east of Eden", to which Cain chose to flee after murdering his brother Abel. The Hebrew word nod means "wandering"."And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden." (Genesis 4:16, King James Version) "Nod" (נוד) is the Hebrew root of the verb "to wander" (לנדוד) and is possibly an etymological etiology intended to explain the peripatetic lifestyle of Cain and his descendants, the Cainites. One interpretation of Genesis 4:16 is that Cain was cursed to wander the land forever, not that he was exiled to a "Land of Wanderers", otherwise absent from the Old Testament.
