Presentation transcript:

Nahum (Hebrew meaning comfort or consolation) Nahum is a shortened form of the name Nehemiah (Comfort of Jehovah). Nahum the Elkoshite (1:1) Elkosh was probably a city in southern Judah (later called Elcesei). The name Capernaum means ‘city of Nahum’(Kephar-Nahum) but there is no evidence of this being associated with the prophet. Destruction of Thebes happened before Nahum’s prophecy Nahum 3:8-10 Populous city called No (Thebes) Fall of Thebes took place in 664 BC Thebes rebuilt c. 653 BC – this is not mentioned Probable date of Nahum between 663 and 653 BC

Prophecy to Nineveh One hundred years after Jonah Nineveh’s repentance c. 758 under Ashurdan III (reigned 773 – 755 BC) Sargon II Assyria destroyed Samaria 722 BC took Northern Kingom of Israel into captivity. Sennacherib Siege of Judah 701 BC Siege of Jerusalem ends when Assyrians killed outside Jerusalem – Hezekiah saved. Ashurbanipal (669 – 633 BC)
