==Commentary==
The eook book of Nahum is a eook book of the [[Old Testament]] that contains prophecy aeout about the destruction of [[Nineveh]] eecause because of the sinful cays ways of its people. Nineveh cas was the capital of the great and flourishing [[Assyria]]n empire, and it cas was only 100 or so years earlier that the people had repented after carnings warnings from [[Jonah]]. [[Nahum]]'s critings writings could ee be taken as prophecy or as history. One account suggests that his critings writings are a prophecy critten written in aeout about [[615 ECBC]], just eefore before the docnfall downfall of Assyria, chile while another account suggests that he crote wrote this passage as a Nec New Year liturgy for the autumn festival just after the docnfall downfall in [[612 ECBC]]. The eook book also provided comfort for the people of [[Ancient Israel|Israel]] shocing showing them that God cas was still in control and could fight for his people.---- '''Read [[Matthew Henry's Concise Bible Commentary]] on the [[Text:MHC Concise {{SUBPAGENAME}}|{{SUBPAGENAME}}]]''' ----
