Böse Stadt, die bei der Kreuzigung zerstört wurde

Die Stadt Kischkumen (Intern Geographiemodell)

The City of Kishkumen was one of several cities that faced divine judgment during the time of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It is mentioned briefly but significantly as a place marked by extreme wickedness; the city and its inhabitants were destroyed by fire due to their actions against the prophets sent among them. The residents of Kishkumen had engaged in the casting out and stoning of prophets, likely aligning with the patterns of violence and rejection of prophetic messages that characterized the more pervasive wickedness of the time (3 Nephi 9:10). The destruction of Kishkumen was part of a broader series of catastrophic events that occurred in the Promised Land at the time of Christ’s death, which served as a divine denunciation of the people’s iniquities and as part of the sweeping changes that transformed the Nephite civilization. The narrative surrounding the city of Kishkumen also intersects with the larger theme of secret combinations and the societal afflictions these groups introduced, as evidenced by the individual Kishkumen’s role in the establishment and perpetuation of clandestine and murderous societies within Nephite culture (Helaman 1:8–12; 2:3–9).
