Group punishment (citizens of Sodom and Gomorrah) is always controversial. God remains silent on the subject to this day.

To paraphrase Robert Duvall in “The Great Santini,” -—

“God don’t say, he just do.”

Is this the same God that made the Israelites wander for forty years in the Wilderness because some of them resorted to Idol Worship?

I think he has a pretty clear record of supporting group punishment.

In the case of Sodom and Gommorah, the Divine Zot was delivered after Lot and his family got out.

Huh?

The Bible is filled with examples demonstrating your personal sin doesn't just effect you.

Romans 14:7 - "For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself."

Achan's entire family was stoned and burned to death because of his defiance of God.
