Full Description
The little book of Nahum has not received good press to this day, because it is commonly classified as one of the prophecies of the biblical prophets against foreign peoples. In contrast, the words of Nahum are directed against the capital of the then Assyrian empire, under whose rule the inhabitants of Judah groaned, and are therefore of a fundamentally different quality. In addition, the words of Nahum have been recorded because they relate to the fall of Nineveh in 612 B.C. had already fulfilled. Centuries later, as a confirmed word of God, they have served as a pillar of hope for people who suffered from oppression in the turning of their hardship. It is even more important that the younger authors of the book gained fundamental statements about God from Nahum's past prophecy. Jeremiah works out the roots of Nahum's message in the tradition of the early prophets of the Old Testament and impresses with the accuracy of the justification of exegetical decisions in conversation with other views. In addition - according to Jeremias - instead of several literary layers in the book, only two can be assumed.
