Nahum 3 Commentary

The prophet Nahum pronounces judgment on Nineveh because of the ferocity of her wars and her wicked influence on other nations.

The LORD announces that He will expose Nineveh to cause her to experience shame and destruction.

The prophet Nahum draws a lesson from Assyria’s history to predict the destruction of Nineveh.

Nahum describes Nineveh’s final destruction and uses irony to urge her to get ready for the coming siege.
