Zoar. The fact that Lot had to flee again, into a cave (v. 30), can be taken to indicate that Zoar also was later destroyed. Most authorities assume that it lies under the Dead Sea. If so, it may be near the town later called Zoara by Eusebius and placed at the southeast corner of the Dead Sea on the sixth-century A.D. mosaic map at Medeba (now Madeba).
