Nahum Overview

Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In this overview by Steve Gregg, the book of Nahum is explored, highlighting its unique perspective as a prophecy against the pagan nation of Assyria and the city of Nineveh. The prophecy predicts Nineveh's fall and the use of vivid language to describe the upcoming invasion. Despite the use of strong language, the book emphasizes that God is good and slow to anger, and warns of the consequences of plotting against Him. Ultimately, Nahum's prophecy serves as a message of doom and judgment against Nineveh, a city compared to a harlot due to its impurity and disgusting behavior.
