Harvest Teachings

Verse By Verse With Pastor Paul Mowery

Author: “The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite” (1:1). Nahum either wrote the prophecies or dictated them to another.

Date: Sometime between 663 and 612 BC.

In Ten Words or Less: Powerful, wicked Nineveh will fall before God’s judgment.

Details: Woe to the bloody city!” Nahum cries (3:1). Nineveh, capital of the brutal Assyrian Empire, has been targeted for judgment by God Himself, who will “make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock” (3:6) for sins of idolatry and cruelty. Nahum’s prophecy comes true when the Babylonian Empire overruns Nineveh in 612 BC.
