- 2005– 44mTV-PG7.0 (11)TV EpisodeDirectorBrendan GoeckelStarsJosh BernsteinMelanie BulujianRami KhouriAccording to the Bible, the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by God to punish their citizens for their wicked ways. Was this just a biblical parable, or is there evidence that such a thing actually happened? Josh Bernstein travels to the Near East to follow clues laid out in the Bible. His search takes him to modern-day Jordan, where, nestled near the Dead Sea, two sister cities reveal archaeological evidence of a great destruction. What happened here, and when? Josh will climb Mount Sodom to inspect a strange "Pillar of Salt" - just like the one the Bible claims Lot's wife became. Next, he works with a pyrotechnic expert to reconstruct a natural-gas explosion that could have resulted in the destruction of Gomorrah. Could these be the fabled cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, and if so, can the tools of modern-day archeology reconstruct what happened during those fateful days before these cities were laid to waste?
