Nahum

Nahum, means comfort(of God) and is related to the name Nehemiah. Nahum prophesied during the seventh century B.C. His book forms the sequel to the Book of Jonah. The repentance under Jonah delayed the judgement of God for about a century. Nahum's prophecy may be dated between the destruction of Thebes by Asshurbanipal in 666 B.C. and the capture of Nineveh by the Babylonians and their allies in 612 B.C. The style of Nathum is lyric poetry of a higher order, which some have considered the most impassioned in all the prophets. All must concede that his messages are vivid and forceful.
