The oracle of Nahum begins with a description of God. He is jealous, avenging, and wrathful - against His enemies, and yet He is good, He cares, and He is slow to anger towards those who trust in Him. The rest of chapter one lets Nineveh know that His wrath is coming, and to Judah that He will fight for them. The Lord tells Nineveh that He is against them (2:13 & 3:5), and that an attacker is coming. We know that attacker will be Babylon. The book ends with news to the king of Assyria, "Nothing can heal your wound; your injury is fatal. Everyone who hears the news about you claps his hands at your fall, for who has not felt your endless cruelty?" The fall of Nineveh, the capital of Assyria, fell in 612 BC.
