Plus all the assigned HOLY LAND STUDY RESOURCES, and John's two most loved books--David's Spiritual Secret & Living Hope for the End of Days at:
There is one inescapable fact of the Universe: the wrath of God may not be evaded.
It is so great that it hunted down and sacrificed no less than the Son of God, Christ Jesus! And if God spared not His Son, what will happen to the rebels on the Day of Judgment?
Nahum[1] has but one theme, and this is that kingdoms built on the foundation of force and fraud shall certainly be destroyed; and that the Kingdom of God, reared on the foundation of truth and righteousness, is bound to triumph. Nineveh represented worldly power in antagonism to Yahweh, and so it had to perish. This is the theme that Nahum insists on with the concentrated effort. Nahum is the prophet of Nemesis; of certain retribution for all evil, whether individual or national.
NINEVAH’S GREATNESS
The Assyrian monarch[2] may have been checked by God in 701 B.C., but these were still great days for Nineveh. Sennacherib more than doubled the city’s size, making it the world’s largest city at that time. The inner city was surrounded by a wall eight miles in circumference. It was one hundred feet high and so wide that three chariots could race around it abreast. It had twelve hundred towers and fourteen gates. Beyond this was a much longer, outer wall. There was an inner city, an outer city, and what we would call extensive suburbs beyond that. In Jonah this wide expanse was termed a “three days’ ” journey (Jonah 3:3).
Sennacherib’s palace was called “The Palace With No Rival.” It was of cedar, cypress, and alabaster. Lions of bronze and bulls of white marble guarded it. Its great hall measured forty by one hundred and fifty feet. Sennacherib’s armory, where he kept his chariots, armor, horses, weapons, and other equipment, covered forty-six acres and took six years to build.
What a magnificent city this was! Yes, but what a wicked city! And with what cruelty and violence was it constructed! Nineveh grew rich at the expense of the nations she had plundered. In his exhaustive study of Nahum, Walter A. Maier writes, “To Nineveh came the distant chieftains who kissed the royal feet, rebel leaders paraded in fetters, distant and deceitful kings tied with dog chains and made to live in kennels. To Nineveh were sent gifts of far-off tribute, heads of vanquished enemies, crown princes as hostages, and beautiful princesses as concubines. In Nineveh rulers who experienced rare mercy carried brick and mortar for building operations. Their recalcitrant captives were flayed, obstinate opponents crushed to death by their own sons. The Nineveh against which the prophet thunders divine denunciation had become the concentrated center of evil, the capital of crushing tyranny, the epitome of cruelest torture. Before the beginning of the seventh century and Sennacherib’s reign, other cities had been royal residences: Calah, Ashur, Dur Sharrukin, but Sennacherib made Nineveh his capital, the world metropolis, the source of unmeasured woe for Judah, as for other, far greater nations[3].
This great city had existed almost from the beginning of time. Under Sennacherib, it rose to unparalleled strength and splendor. But it was to end. Within ninety years of Sennacherib’s encampment before Jerusalem’s walls, Ninevah, the largest city in the world, was overthrown – never to be inhabited again.
