 Seen as the classic Biblical (God) punishment – often levied by The Creator Himself, ''Fire and Brimstone'' is seen as the personification of ''Divine Retribution''. Described as ''Fire From The Sky (or Heaven)'' which brings with it the unmistakable odor of Sulfur (created when such Lighting from Heaven impacts onto The Earth – as thought of by The Ancients). This ''effect'' results from only such ''Fire'' (Lighting) when directed from ''Divine'' aim! Beginning with The Old Testament's ''Book of Genesis'' and being written of many times, Fire and Brimstone was a ''staple'' of Old Testament retribution. Such was used to epic conclusions to destroy the truly evil Cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. Fire and Brimstone is also described by The Hebrew as The ''Breath of Yaweh'' (God). Comparatively, Fire and Brimstone is also seen as a Supernatural substance ''present'' in Hell (again as a form of ''eternal punishment''.
