Podcasts about Nahum

Calvary Chapel McKinney Pastor James Marini continues a Bible study series through 2 Samuel. This week's verse by verse study is 2 Samuel 22. From Sunday, June 29th, 2025.Take Aways:1. As the Lord faithfully interceded to grant deliverance to David from all his enemies, so God is mighty to save all those who trust in Him as their personal Savior from the enemies of sin and death—“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.” John 5:242. David delighted in the Lord which generated an expectation that God would preserve him as the Lord is faithful to protect those who belong to Him, and we can expect the same as we continue to trust in Him—“The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him.” Nahum 1:73. David recognized the Lord's worthiness to be celebrated through devotion and praise reminding us to be a people who exalt the Lord through a lifestyle of adoration and worship—“The LORD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; My father's God, and I will exalt Him.” Exodus 15:2

Sometimes its so easy to just sit back and not even realize your faith life has gotten stale. Pastor Claude uses examples from the book of Nahum to show us the dangers of the slow drift we often find ourselves facing in our faith walk. The post Nahum appeared first on Gospel Mission Church.

Today's daf is sponsored by Sylvia Klein in loving memory of her brother, Bobby Klein, who passed away 40 years ago. "He taught us about love and acceptance. His humor, friendliness, and loving spirit is greatly missed." Rav Huna ruled like Rabbi Yehoshua ben Korcha, who distinguished between loans with a promissory note and those without, and permitted Jews to collect loans without a promissory note from gentiles before their holidays. He also ruled like Rabbi Yehuda on the issue of a dyer who dyed someone's wool the wrong color. Rav Yosef did not understand why Rav Huna needed to explain the ruling like Rabbi Yehuda, as he thought it was obvious from the stam Mishna in Bava Metzia that corresponded to his opinion, as when there is a Mishna with a debate that is followed by a stam Mishna, the ruling is always like the stam Mishna. What was that not obvious to Rav Huna?  The Gemara quotes several other debates between Rabbi Yehoshua ben Korcha and others in which the ruling is like Rabbi Yehoshua ben Korcha. Rabbi Yishmael forbade doing business dealings with gentiles three days before and three days after their holidays. Shmuel explained that based on Rabbi Yishmael, it is forbidden to have any business dealings with Christians, as every Sunday they have a holiday.  The rabbis disagree and forbid business dealings before. The Gemara questions how their opinion differs from the tanna's opinion in the first Mishna of the masechet. Four suggestions are brought. The last relates to an opinion of Nahum the Mede. There are several issues brought in the Gemara where Naum the Mede disagreed with the sages or individual sages on a particular issue, and the rabbis were unwilling to accept his position.

Overview of Nahum by Bible Project. https://bibleproject.com/videos/nahum/

Jesus, be my strong refuge when trouble comes.Nahum 1:7 Though this is a “best of” episode, may you feel God near in that battle.

Na'hum. (consolation). Nahum, called "the Elkoshite," is the seventh, in order, of the Minor Prophets. The name refers back to Yahweh's compassion connected with Jonah's mission eighty-seven years before. The name Nahum is an abbreviated form of the name Nehemiah, which means “Comfort of Yahweh.”What is the purpose of this book? The book of Nahum is devoted exclusively to the announcement of the destruction of the city of Nineveh; the prophecy gave hope to the people of Judah who had long been terrorized by Assyria's constant and ominous threatBefore I get into this study, I continue with our study on what the Capital Building is all about. Was the Capital design to be a Temple set up by the founders of the New World Order?  In this study, I take a look at the man who is at the center of all this George Washington. We must ask ourselves, “Was Washington a Man of God? Or God-Man?”In this study I will finish Chapter 32:1 - 3:19. DESTRUCTION OF NINEVEH.   2:1-2. Yahweh's. = challenge to fight.   2:3-10. Judgment. = Invasion.   2:11-13; 3:1-7. Causes. = Hostility.  3:8-10. Examples. = Citation.   3:11-13. Examples. = Application.   3:14. Yahweh's. = challenge to fight.   3:15-17. Judgment. = Devastation.   3:18-19. Causes. = Hostility14  Yahweh mocks Assyria's futile strength (14-15a)Draw thee = Draw for thyself. Draw thee waters for the siege = Nahum practically mocked the people of Nineveh, cheering them on to do the best they could in light of the coming judgment. They could prepare as many provisions and people as they pleased, but it would all come to nothing against the judgment of Yahweh.Two forms of preparation are given.1.       Water: “Draw for yourself water for a siege!” (14a)1.       Needed for survival if cut off and Nineveh being surrounded.2.       Adding to fortification: “Strengthen your fortifications!” (14b) = How will be given with details in the rest of the verse.15   There = in the very scene of thy great preparations for defense; and where thou now art so secure. fire = even as at the former destruction; cankerworm = the young locust. Hebrew. yelek.  “the licking locust”Yahweh predicts Assyria's weakened economy (15b-17)make thyself many = [though thou be] numerous. Figure of speech Irony. locusts = the young locust. Hebrew 'arbeh. make thyself many as the locusts = “the swarming locusts”; that is, however “many” be thy forces, like those of “the swarming locusts,” or the “licking locusts,” yet the foe shall consume thee as the “licking locust” licks up all before it.17  In this verse Nahum is speaking of those who were loyal to the government – i.e. Government workers. Assyria was full of merchants. These were going to be like food for the enemy. All the people who worked in this empire were going to flee away, like locusts that flee to the hills. This means that there would be no loyalty, to the empire, among the government officials.18  Now we see the eulogy in the last 2 verses. Shepherds are those who are supposed to be watching and guarding the helpless sheep (citizens). The noblemen move elsewhere so as to not be identified as a part of this empire. They abandon Assyria. Sin brings about abandonment in a person's life. 19   King's death predictedHave any questions?

Reverend Chris Harper - Scripture: Nahum

In this episode, we dive into the fiery poetry of Nahum 1: in which God declares justice against oppressive powers. We reflect on Christian oligarchs- those who claim the name of Christ yet abuse wealth, power, and influence .

Minor Prophets, Major MessageNahumNahum 1:7-9“The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him, but with an overwhelming flood he will make an end of Nineveh; he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness. Whatever they plot against the LORD he will bring to an end; trouble will not come a second time.”Nahum 1:7-9 (NIV)1. The LORD is GOOD—even when life ISN'T.   Application: Choose to TRUST in God's goodness.2. The LORD cares for those who TRUST in Him.· God give PEACE and STRENGTH.· God provides COMMUNITY and SUPPORT.· God meets our NEEDS.Application: Take REFUGE in God.3. The LORD brings JUSTICE—evil does not get the LAST WORD.Application: Stand firm against EVIL, and leave FINAL justice to God.Takeaway: Live as a messenger of HOPE.“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”  John 3:16-17 (NIV)

Article 4: The Canonical Books We include in the Holy Scripture the two volumes of the Old and New Testaments. They are canonical books with which there can be no quarrel at all. In the church of God the list is as follows: In the Old Testament, the five books of Moses— Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy; the books of Joshua, Judges, and Ruth; the two books of Samuel, and two of Kings; the two books of Chronicles, called Paralipomenon; the first book of Ezra; Nehemiah, Esther, Job; the Psalms of David; the three books of Solomon— Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song; the four major prophets— Isaiah, Jeremiah*, Ezekiel, Daniel; and then the other twelve minor prophets— Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi. In the New Testament, the four gospels— Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John; the Acts of the Apostles; the fourteen letters of Paul— to the Romans; the two letters to the Corinthians; to the Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians; the two letters to the Thessalonians; the two letters to Timothy; to Titus, Philemon, and to the Hebrews; the seven letters of the other apostles— one of James; two of Peter; three of John; one of Jude; and the Revelation of the apostle John. * "Jeremiah" here includes the Book of Lamentations as well as the Book of Jeremiah. Article 5: The Authority of Scripture We receive all these books and these only as holy and canonical, for the regulating, founding, and establishing of our faith. And we believe without a doubt all things contained in them— not so much because the church receives and approves them as such but above all because the Holy Spirit testifies in our

HIstorical background regarding the Prophet Nahum and the time period of his prophecy regarding the fall of Nineveh and the Assyrians.

Na'hum. (consolation). Nahum, called "the Elkoshite," is the seventh, in order, of the Minor Prophets. His personal history is quite unknown. The site of Elkosh, his native place, is disputed, some placing it in Galilee, others in AssyriaThe name refers back to Yahweh's compassion connected with Jonah's mission eighty-seven years before. The name Nahum is an abbreviated form of the name Nehemiah, which means “Comfort of Yahweh.”What is the purpose of this book? The book of Nahum is devoted exclusively to the announcement of the destruction of the city of Nineveh; the prophecy gave hope to the people of Judah who had long been terrorized by Assyria's constant and ominous threatBefore I get into this study, I continue with our study on what the Capital Building is all about. Was the Capital design to be a Temple set up by the founders of the New World Order?  In this study, I take a look at the man who is at the center of all this George Washington. We must ask ourselves, “Was Washington a Man of God? Or God-Man?”Beginning with this Chapter 2 and in this Chapter 3 we now read of Nineveh's destruction.As we continue is this Chapter 3 verse 10, we still see the;2:1 - 3:19. DESTRUCTION OF NINEVEH.   2:1-2. Yahweh's. = challenge to fight.   2:3-10. Judgment. = Invasion.   2:11-13; 3:1-7. Causes. = Hostility.  3:8-10. Examples. = Citation.   3:11-13. Examples. = Application.   3:14. Yahweh's. = challenge to fight.   3:15-17. Judgment. = Devastation.   3:18-19. Causes. = Hostility With everything going on, Yahweh reminds Nineveh that Thebes was destroyed (10)Yet was she, &c = The cuneiform monuments tell us that Thebes, the old capital of Egypt, was destroyed by Assyria about 663 B.C. She = i.e. Thebes. Therefore, Nineveh too will fall (11)Yahweh's judgment has an eternal aspect, it never ends. Yahweh can be comforted by His judgment.Thou = i.e. Nineveh. We as a nation are like the Ninevites. We see empires and nations judged in our own day and in history, just like the Assyrians saw Thebes destroyed. Yet we, like the Ninevites, somehow think that we will be spared, despite our sinful arrogance and rebellion.be drunken = i.e. drink of the cup [of judgment]; or, be stupefied by thy calamity. be hid = hide thyself. strength = strength [for defense]; hence = "thou shalt seek a stronghold, or refuge [in vain]". Have you know guys in the military that like to brag? Well listen to what the Yahweh has to say!12  Your strongholds are fig trees with ripened figs = As easily as ripe fruit falls from a shaken tree, so would the strongholds of Nineveh fall before the judgment of Yahweh. We often have our strongholds of sin and pride that we put great confidence in, but they are ready to be shaken and fall to the ground.13  thy people = thy soldiers.women = unable to fight for thee (Isa. 19:16; Jerm. 50:37; 51:30).gates on thy land = the fortified passes or entrances to the region of Nineveh (compare Jerm. 15:7). Northeast of Nineveh there were hills affording a natural barrier against an invader; the guarded passes through these are probably “the gates of the land” meant.fire shall devour thy bars = the “bars” of the fortresses at the passes into Assyria. So in Assyrian remains the Assyrians themselves are represented as setting fire to the gates of a cityJoin me as we go Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Unraveling the Words of Yahweh!Have any questions?

Nahum 2:1-3:19 The scatterer has come up against you. Man the ramparts; watch the road; dress for battle; collect all your strength. 2 For the Lord is restoring the majesty of Jacob as the majesty of Israel, for plunderers have plundered them and ruined their branches. 3 The shield of his mighty men is red; his soldiers are clothed in scarlet. The chariots come with flashing metal on the day he musters them; the cypress spears are brandished. 4 The chariots race madly through the streets; they rush to and fro through the squares; they gleam like torches; they dart like lightning. 5 He remembers his officers; they stumble as they go, they hasten to the wall; the siege tower is set up. 6 The river gates are opened; the palace melts away; 7 its mistress is stripped; she is carried off, her slave girls lamenting, moaning like doves and beating their breasts. 8 Nineveh is like a pool whose waters run away. “Halt! Halt!” they cry, but none turns back. 9 Plunder the silver, plunder the gold! There is no end of the treasure or of the wealth of all precious things. 10 Desolate! Desolation and ruin! Hearts melt and knees tremble; anguish is in all loins; all faces grow pale! 11 Where is the lions' den, the feeding place of the young lions, where the lion and lioness went, where his cubs were, with none to dis- turb? 12 The lion tore enough for his cubs and strangled prey for his lionesses; he filled his caves with prey and his dens with torn flesh. 13 Behold, I am against you, declares the Lord of hosts, and I will burn your chariots in smoke, and the sword shall devour your young lions. I will cut off your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers shall no longer be heard. 3:1 Woe to the bloody city, all full of lies and plunder— no end to the prey! 2 The crack of the whip, and rumble of the wheel, galloping horse and bounding chariot! 3 Horsemen charging, flashing sword and glittering spear, hosts of slain, heaps of corpses, dead bodies without end— they stumble over the bodies! 114 And all for the countless whorings of the prostitute, graceful and of deadly charms, who betrays nations with her whorings, and peoples with her charms. 5 Behold, I am against you, declares the Lord of hosts, and will lift up your skirts over your face; and I will make nations look at your na- kedness and kingdoms at your shame. 6 I will throw filth at you and treat you with contempt and make you a spectacle. 7 And all who look at you will shrink from you and say, “Wasted is Nineveh; who will grieve for her?” Where shall I seek comforters for you? 8 Are you better than Thebes that sat by the Nile, with water around her, her rampart a sea, and water her wall? 9 Cush was her strength; Egypt too, and that without limit; Put and the Libyans were her helpers. 10 Yet she became an exile; she went into captivity; her infants were dashed in pieces at the head of every street; for her honored men lots were cast, and all her great men were bound in chains. 11 You also will be drunken; you will go into hiding; you will seek a refuge from the enemy. 12 All your fortresses are like fig trees with first-ripe figs— if shaken they fall into the mouth of the eater. 13 Behold, your troops are women in your midst. The gates of your land are wide open to your enemies; fire has devoured your bars. 14 Draw water for the siege; strengthen your forts; go into the clay; tread the mortar; take hold of the brick mold! 15 There will the fire devour you; the sword will cut you off. It will devour you like the locust. Multiply yourselves like the locust; multiply like the grasshopper! 16 You increased your merchants more than the stars of the heavens. The locust spreads its wings and flies away. 17 Your princes are like grasshoppers, your scribes like clouds of locusts settling on the fences in a day of cold— when the sun rises, they fly away; no one knows where they are. 18 Your shepherds are asleep, O king of Assyria; your nobles slumber. Your people are scattered on the moun- tains with none to gather them. 19 There is no easing your hurt; your wound is grievous. All who hear the news about you clap their hands over you. For upon whom has not come your unceasing evil?

*Bryan Haynes - Nahum 1*

Speaker: Justin Kim, Series: The Minor Prophets, Passage: Nahum 1:2-8,15

The prophet Jonah is no different than many Believers today. Anointed without question. The ability to hear GOD clearly and accurately share what "Thus Saith The Lord!" With all of this working in his favor, he struggled in one major area: Forgiveness. Jonah wanted Justice. He wanted Ninevah to pay for the evil they had done. Though they eventually did, see the book of Nahum. His primary responsibility at this point was to issue a warning of judgment and leave the rest up to GOD. May I encourage you today, Justice has been served! Even if it didn't go the way you wanted it to go... #Lets Talk (Scripture Reference: Jonah 4)Get your copy of the JESUSgirlENT Magazine today!!!JESUSgirlENT Magazine Issue 7 Amazon link: https://a.co/d/ibVtJzEJESUSgirlENT Magazine Issue 7 E-Magazine Download: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/79FY3ASFCPADJ?fbclid=PAQ0xDSwK7Bj1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABpwdGvqXhaeoLEv-FtXKFo1NnVjOLSWoEteqTtNxgtvTc34i3HrJEYyvsLeXX_aem_LaZVFNbV8RWxnnsd2tUGOw

For the Lord is restoring the majesty of Jacob as the majesty of Israel, for plunderers have plundered them and ruined their branches (Nahum 2:2). Glory to God!

The Lord is slow to anger and great in power, and the Lord will by no means clear the guilty (Nahum 1:3). Thank you, Jesus!

Day 49 - Lord, Am I Like You?  Nahum 1:1-15   “Don't just pray for people experiencing hardship—step into their world and serve them.” It's easy to offer prayers from a distance, but true compassion requires action. Jonah delivered a warning, but Nineveh treated it as temporary. “Gratitude must extend beyond Thanksgiving; it must become a daily posture of the heart.   The Power of Gratitude   In what ways do entitlement and complacency creep into our hearts and make us forget God's blessings?    Application & Accountability   What is one practical way you can demonstrate compassion in action this week?

Nahum 1:1-15 An oracle concerning Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum of Elkosh. 2 The Lord is a jealous and avenging God; the Lord is avenging and wrathful; the Lord takes vengeance on his adversaries and keeps wrath for his enemies. 3 The Lord is slow to anger and great in power, and the Lord will by no means clear the guilty. His way is in whirlwind and storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet. 4 He rebukes the sea and makes it dry; he dries up all the rivers; Bashan and Carmel wither; the bloom of Lebanon withers. 5 The mountains quake before him; the hills melt; the earth heaves before him, the world and all who dwell in it. 6 Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the heat of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken into pieces by him. 7 The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him. 8 But with an overflowing flood he will make a complete end of the adversaries, and will pursue his enemies into darkness. 9 What do you plot against the Lord? He will make a complete end; trouble will not rise up a second time. 10 For they are like entangled thorns, like drunkards as they drink; they are consumed like stubble fully dried. 11 From you came one who plotted evil against the Lord, a worthless counselor. 12 Thus says the Lord, “Though they are at full strength and many, they will be cut down and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more. 13 And now I will break his yoke from off you and will burst your bonds apart.” 14 The Lord has given commandment about you: “No more shall your name be perpetuated; from the house of your gods I will cut off the carved image and the metal image. I will make your grave, for you are vile.” 15 Behold, upon the mountains, the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace! Keep your feasts, O Judah; fulfill your vows, for never again shall the worthless pass through you; he is utterly cut off.

Na'hum. (consolation). Nahum, called "the Elkoshite," is the seventh, in order, of the Minor Prophets. His personal history is quite unknown. The site of Elkosh, his native place, is disputed, some placing it in Galilee, others in AssyriaThe name refers back to Yahweh's compassion connected with Jonah's mission eighty-seven years before. The name Nahum is an abbreviated form of the name Nehemiah, which means “Comfort of Yahweh.”The book of Nahum is devoted exclusively to the announcement of the destruction of the city of Nineveh; the prophecy gave hope to the people of Judah who had long been terrorized by Assyria's constant and ominous threatI continue with our study on what the Capital Building is all about. Was the Capital design to be a Temple set up by the founders of the New World Order?  In this study, I continue into the insight of the artist of the Capital Dome, Constantino Brumidi. As we continue is this Chapter 3, we still see the2:1 - 3:19. DESTRUCTION OF NINEVEH.   2:1-2. Yahweh's. = challenge to fight   2:3-10. Judgment. = Invasion   2:11-13; 3:1-7. Causes. = Hostility  3:8-10. Examples. = Citation   3:11-13. Examples. = Application   3:14. Yahweh's. = challenge to fight   3:15-17. Judgment. = Devastation   3:18-19. Causes. = Hostility Then we continue with Yahweh's2:3-10. JUDGMENT. INVASION  2:11-13; 3:1-7. CAUSES. = Hostility 2:11-12. Yahweh's. = challenge to fight 2:13. The cause. = Hostility 3:1-3. Yahweh. = Challenge to fight 3:4-7. The cause. = HostilityIn our last study we started to see why Yahweh is so mad with Nineveh. In verse 1 Yahweh states that Nineveh is a ‘bloody city, full of lies and robbery' and verse 4 we see Yahweh showing us that Nineveh was a city of ‘whoredoms, a mistress of witchcrafts and a seller to other nations through her whoredoms and witchcrafts' We need to know Yahweh's punishment of Nineveh and its outcome (5-7), so we have an idea of what to expect1.       Yahweh is the one who punishes: Note the first-person singular pronouns used here by Yahweh2.     “Behold, I am against you” (5a) = Recall Nahum 2:133.       First three lines focuses on Nineveh being humiliated like a prostitute's shame with public nudity: “And I will lift up your skirts over your face, And show the nations your nakedness, And the kingdoms your shame” (5b)         1.       Assyrian laws prohibit prostitutes wearing veils, something only a married woman can wear so when a prostitute is caught wearing one she is publicly stripped at the entry of the palace after she is found guilty, as a punishment        2.       Given the reference to Nineveh's deceit in Nahum 3:1 and 3:4 this might be the parallel that explain Nineveh's punishment of being shame with nakedness as a punishment. Thus we see Nineveh's own law turn against itself        3.       Assyrian goddess Ishtar often appeals to followers with art work of her naked body; but this exposure is not seductive as it is exposing the horror of what Nineveh's ugliness is like       4.       Rather than reveal to intoxicate Yahweh's punishment here is to repulse those who might otherwise might be tempted by her spell4.       Further shaming: “I will throw filth on you And declare you worthless, And set you up as a spectacle” (6)Have any questions?

This week, Nate is joined by Dr. Stephen Coleman to talk about the books of Jonah and Nahum. Dr. Coleman has a commentary on the post-exilic minor prophets due out in the Preaching The Word commentary series this November. They discuss the complementary ways in which Jonah and Nahum work together in displaying the Lord's mercy for the nations. It's a real deep dive into a fascinating topic of scripture.

Na'hum. (consolation). Nahum, called "the Elkoshite," is the seventh, in order, of the Minor Prophets. His personal history is quite unknownThe name refers back to Yahweh's compassion connected with Jonah's mission eighty-seven years before. The name Nahum is an abbreviated form of the name Nehemiah, which means “Comfort of Yahweh.”Before I get into this study, I continue with our study on what the Capital Building is all about. Was the Capital design to be a Temple set up by the founders of the New World Order?  In this study, I continue into the insight of the artist of the Capital Dome, Constantino BrumidiBeginning with this Chapter 2 and in this Chapter 3 we now read of Nineveh's destruction2:1 - 3:19.

This week we will finish this Chapter 28 The prophet compares the past and present condition of Ninevehis of old, &c. = Read "hath been from of old [filled with men] as a pool [is full] of water". Nahum said the troops defending Nineveh would be like a pool of water that drains away to no useLike a pool of water = In the Scripture, water refers to a great multitude of people (Revelation 17:15) they: = i.e. the defendersStand, stand = They pay no attentionthey: = i.e. the captains9  Nahum calls on the invaders to come and gather the spoil of the city, which God gives into their handstake the spoil. = Note the Figure of speech Epizeuxis “The Repetition of the Same Word in the Same Sense”, for emphasis.  Nineveh was going to be plundered by the enemy. All of her choice vessels were taken, and she was left empty handed10  empty . . . void . . . waste. Note the Figure of speech Par-o-no-ma-si-a (The Repetition of Words similar in Sound, but not necessarily in SensePar-o-no-ma´-si-a, from παρά (para) beside, and ὄνομαζειν (onomazein) to name, make a name, or a word.

(Nahum 1:1-15) Nahum is writing to a downtrodden, disoriented, and despairing people. God's people have been victims of oppression for almost a century by the Assyrian empire. The question they were asking was, “Is God present? Is God strong? Will He save us?” Nahum's response is He is strong and He will save them and Nahum reinforces this truth by pointing them to God's power, God's jealousy, and God's salvation. Nahum teaches that not only is God strong, but He's also good. And because He is these things, we can be confident that no matter what we face, God will be faithful to save us.

(Part 2) Nahum's little book is a taunt. Imagine a single person standing opposite the world's most powerful army and taunting them about their utter destruction. It seems preposterous. And yet, God called Nahum to "comfort" the oppressed while condemning the oppressor. There is so much to learn from this so called "minor" prophet.
