What changes should there have been in cities like Chorazin and Bethsaida as a result of the mighty works performed by Jesus?
Sodom did not know the full message so they persited in sin out of not complete ignorance. These cities were shown the bright Light of Truth that clearly illumined the way and decided in full consciousness not to walk that way. They committed mortal sin. That`s why the judgement will be more lenient on Sodom which sinned out of `partial ignorance` ''see invincible ignorance''.

Woe on Unrepentant Cities

Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn't repent. "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you. You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will go down to Hades. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until this day. But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, on the day of judgment, than for you."

Matthew 11:20-24
