Mount Sedom

This five-mile-long block of salt rises out of the ground at the southern tip of the Dead Sea. The barren conditions of the area are a stark reminder of the consequences of Lot's choice and his wife's disobedience. Some scholars believe that Sodom and Gomorrah lie under the Dead Sea. Whether this is true or not, the desolateness of the area should persuade us to chose God and to resist the sinful practices of any culture.
