From: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

 Brimstone
    an inflammable mineral substance found in quantities on the
    shores of the Dead Sea. The cities of the plain were destroyed
    by a rain of fire and brimstone (Gen. 19:24, 25). In Isa. 34:9
    allusion is made to the destruction of these cities. This word
    figuratively denotes destruction or punishment (Job 18:15; Isa.
    30:33; 34:9; Ps. 11:6; Ezek. 38:22). It is used to express the
    idea of excruciating torment in Rev. 14:10; 19:20; 20:10.
