If Hugh Miller's theory of the flood in correct--and it is the most reasonable theory yet propounded--then the Dead Sea was formed by the depression of that part of the valley through which the Jordan once flowed to the Red Sea.
But this great depression caused all the waters of the Jordan to remain without outlet, and the size of the Dead Sea must be such that the evaporation from its surface just balances the amount of water which flows in through the river.
