Context: Tseboim, also spelled Zeboim, is one of the five cities of the plain mentioned in the Bible, alongside Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim. These cities are noted for their destruction by divine judgment due to their wickedness, as described in Genesis 19. Tseboim is specifically mentioned in Genesis 14:2, where it is listed among the cities that rebelled against Chedorlaomer, king of Elam. The city is also referenced in Deuteronomy 29:23, where its destruction is recalled as a warning to the Israelites. The exact location of Tseboim is not known today, but it is traditionally associated with the region near the Dead Sea. The destruction of Tseboim, along with the other cities, serves as a biblical example of divine retribution and is often cited in theological discussions about judgment and morality.
