Abacwaningi baqinisekile ukuthi i-Tell el-Hamam eJordani, lapho izimpawu zokushisa okukhulu nongqimba lwembubhiso zihambisana nendaba yeBhayibheli yokubhujiswa kweSodoma, indawo yalo muzi wasendulo. Engxoxweni yakamuva eyanyatheliswa ngasekupheleni kukaJuni, umvubukuli wenza indaba ephoqelelayo mayelana nokuhlonzwa kwendawo yasendulo yeBhayibheli yaseSodoma. UStephen Collins, umqondisi womnyango wemivubukulo e-Trinity Southwest University, uthi yena nethimba lakhe banesizathu sokukholelwa ukuthi i-Tell el-Hammam yaseJordan inezici eziningi ezikhomba eSodoma, kubika i-Daily Caller. Ikakhulukazi, isayithi liziqhayisa ngezinto zobuciko ze-Bronze Age ezisatshalalisiwe ezibonisa izimpawu zokushisisa okukhulu. Lokhu kuhambisana nencazelo esezindabeni zeBhayibheli zokubhujiswa komlilo komuzi.
U-Collins uchaza kabanzi ngalokhu okutholwe ezithakazelisayo, ethi, “Ngemva kokuthola amasentimitha ambalwa ongqimbeni Lwenkathi Ye-Bronze, sihlangana nocezu lobumba—ingxenye yembiza yokugcina izinto ebonakala icwebezelisiwe.” Omunye wozakwabo bakaCollins udweba ukufana, eqhathanisa izibazi ezibonakalayo nalezo ezisendaweni yokuhlola i-nuclear ye-Trinity eNew Mexico, lapho kwaqhunyiswa khona ibhomu le-athomu lokuqala emhlabeni. Imibiko yangaphambilini yalesi siza iphakamisa ukuthi yacekelwa phansi yinhlekelele eminyakeni engaba ngu-4,000 XNUMX edlule, okungenzeka ngenxa yethonya le-meteorite. Nakuba ubuqiniso balo mcimbi bungakatholakali, ubufakazi butholakele, njengoba buchazwe kabanzi ocwaningweni. Umcwaningi uphawule ukuba khona kongqimba olunothe ngamalahle, okubonisa ukusha okukhulu, kanye neqoqo lezinto zobuciko ezincibilikisiwe. Ngokusekelwe kulokhu okutholiwe, kucatshangwa ukuthi isayithi labhekana nokubhujiswa okusheshayo nokubhubhisayo.
Ngaphezu kwalokhu, uCollins uthi okungenani kunezikhombo zendawo ezingama-25 emiBhalweni ezingaxhunyaniswa nokuholela endaweni yaseSodoma. Ngokwesibonelo, ubhekisela kuGenesise 13:11 , okhuluma ngoLoti elibangise empumalanga. Kufanele kuqashelwe ukuthi iTell el-Hamam isempumalanga yeBethele ne-Ayi, okuvumelana nalokhu kulandisa kweBhayibheli.
Isiphakamiso esenziwe uCollins nethimba lakhe sinikeza ithuba elihle lokuthi iTell el-Hammam yayiyindawo yedolobha lasendulo laseSodoma. Njengoba iNkathi Yethusi isasele ibonisa izimpawu zokushisa okukhulu okusikhumbuza isiphetho esishisayo saseSodoma, kanye nokuhlobana kwezindawo okuhambisana nezincazelo zeBhayibheli, ucwaningo olwengeziwe nokuhlaziywa kwesayensi ngokungangabazeki kuzosikhanyisela okwengeziwe ngalo mbono ophawulekayo.
Ososayensi baseNyuvesi yaseCalifornia (Santa Barbara) bathi bakwazile ukuxazulula enye yezimfihlakalo zakudala emlandweni wesintu - imfihlo yokubhujiswa kwamadolobha aseSodoma naseGomora, okukhulunywa ngawo eBhayibhelini, kubhala i-Express.co.uk ngoNdasa wonyaka odlule.
Imibhalo ithi baqedwa ulaka lukaNkulunkulu ebusweni bomhlaba, ngoba izakhamuzi zabo zase zicwile ekonakaleni okwakungakaze kubonwe ngaphambili futhi zalahlekelwa yikho konke ukwesaba. Kodwa iqiniso laliyi-prosaic kakhulu, kusho umbhali oholayo wocwaningo uProf James Kennett. Ngokusho kwakhe, iSodoma neGomora lacekelwa phansi yimvula yemvula, eyashisa zonke izakhiwo futhi yabulala zonke izakhamuzi ezingu-8,000 25. Mhlawumbe isenzakalo esifanayo sabangela ukuwa kwezindonga zaseJeriko. Le nkolelo-mbono ibonakala inengqondo kakhulu, uma kucatshangelwa ukuthi iJeriko laliqhele ngamakhilomitha angama-100 ukusuka endaweni eyingqophamlando “yesici somlilo”. Izazi zichaza ukuthi ngokubona okwenzeka eSodoma naseGomora kungenzeka ngempela kwakufana nolaka lukaNkulunkulu, njengoba ibhola elikhulu lomlilo cishe lawa livela esibhakabhakeni phezu kwemizi. Kwalandela ukuqhuma, okwacekela phansi ingxenye esenyakatho yeSigodi SaseJordani futhi kwacekela phansi izakhiwo endaweni engaba amahektha ayi-XNUMX. Isigodlo esichazwe emithonjeni yasendulo sacekelwa phansi, izindlu zedolobha kanye nemizana eminingi yaba umlotha.
Abacwaningi baseCalifornia bayaqiniseka ukuthi abekho abasinda kule nhlekelele. Ukuqhuma okunamandla kwenzeke cishe ku-2.5 km ukusuka phansi futhi kwadala igagasi lokushaqisa elisakazeka ngesivinini esingaba ngu-800 km/h. Izinsalela zomuntu ezatholwa abavubukuli endaweni yengozi zisikisela ukuthi zaqhunyiswa noma zashiswa. Amathambo amaningi ambozwe imifantu, amanye ahlukene. “Sibone ubufakazi bamazinga okushisa angaphezu kuka-2,000 XNUMX degrees Celsius,” kusho uProf Kennett. Iziphetho ezifanayo zenziwa ithimba lamazwe ngamazwe lochwepheshe elahlola izingcezu zobumba nezinto zokwakha. “Yonke into yancibilika yaphenduka ingilazi,” kufingqa uKenneth.
Ubuchwepheshe bomuntu obungadala umonakalo onjalo ngokuqinisekile babungekho ngalezo zinsuku. UProfesa Kennett waqhathanisa lesi senzakalo esingavamile nokuwa kwe-meteorite yaseTunguska ngo-1908, lapho “iphrojekthi yasemkhathini” engamamegaton angu-12 ibhubhisa izihlahla eziyizigidi ezingu-80 endaweni engaba amakhilomitha-skwele angu-900 empumalanga yeSiberia. Kungase futhi kube nomthelela owaqeda ama-dinosaurs, kodwa ngezinga elincane. Izinsimbi ezincibilikisiwe, okuhlanganisa insimbi ne-silica, ziye zatholakala endaweni okucatshangwa ukuthi yayikuyo iSodoma neGomora, emasampulini enhlabathi nasezindaweni ze-limestone. Lokhu kufanele futhi kubhekwe njengobufakazi bokuthi kukhona okungajwayelekile okwenzeka lapho - umthelela osheshayo wamazinga okushisa aphezulu kakhulu.
ISodoma neGomora ngokuhlangene bathatha indawo enkulu ngokuphindwe ka-10 kanye ne-5 kuneJerusalema neJeriko ngokulandelana. Kuyo yonke le ndawo, abacwaningi bathola amasampula e-quartz eqhekekile, ngokusho kukaProf. Kennett. “Ngicabanga ukuthi okunye okubalulekile okutholwe yi-quartz eqhekekile. Lezi yizinhlamvu zesihlabathi eziqukethe imifantu eyakha kuphela ngaphansi kwengcindezi ephakeme kakhulu - kuchaza usosayensi. - I-Quartz ingenye yamaminerali anzima kakhulu. Kunzima kakhulu ukuqhekeka,” kuchaza usosayensi.
Manje abacwaningi abavela kuwo wonke umhlaba bamba idolobha lasendulo iTal el-Haman. Abaningi babo bayaphikisana ngokuthi le ndawo iyiyo kanye indawo iBhayibheli eliyibiza ngokuthi iSodoma. Abacwaningi bakholelwa ukuthi inhlekelele enkulu eyenzeka kule ndawo yabangela amasiko adluliselwa ngomlomo aphefumulela ukulandisa okusencwadini kaGenesise. Mhlawumbe inhlekelele efanayo yabangela inganekwane yeBhayibheli yokuwa kwezindonga zaseJeriko.
