Usage: The term "Sodoma" refers to the ancient city of Sodom, which, along with Gomorrah, is famously known for its destruction by divine judgment due to its inhabitants' grievous sins. In the New Testament, "Sodoma" is often used symbolically to represent extreme wickedness and moral corruption.

Cultural and Historical Background: Sodom was one of the five cities of the plain mentioned in Genesis, located near the Dead Sea. It was known for its prosperity but also for its grave sinfulness, which led to its destruction by fire and brimstone from heaven (Genesis 19). The account of Sodom serves as a powerful moral lesson in both Jewish and Christian traditions, emphasizing the consequences of sin and the importance of righteousness.
