Nahum 1:9-14

It is very evident that the Prophet's whole discourse is directed to warn the Ninevites, who thought of destroying Israel, that they should thereby only hasten their own destruction. And the event in the history of that people have so proved. Reader! turn to that sweet scripture promise upon this and every other occasion, for it is a promise that never hath failed or can fail; and may be applied as opportunities need, for God's people in all ages. Isaiah 55:13. In both spiritual concerns, and temporal, this holds good. But, Reader! do not forget to connect with it the cause, namely Christ. Connect also Psalms 72:17. the blessing is in Him, and 2 Corinthians 1:20. the promises. Sweet consideration to the believer!
