Written in a comprehensive style, this work is a detailed, expositional commentary of Jonah-the grace of God and the salvation of Nineveh-and Nahum-the vivid destruction and judgment of Nineveh-in a verse-by-verse explanation of each prophetic book according to the New American Standard Bible (NASB). In Jonah, the Ninevites of Assyria repented of their cruel and annihilatory exploits and were spared from destruction; however, less than a century later, the Assyrians apparently repented of their repentance and demolished the ten northern tribes of Israel in 722 BC. Although nineteen evil kings reigned over Israel since its inception in 931 BC-as a result of the divided kingdom-the entire nation of Israel was still God's sovereign elect. In keeping with His promises concerning the Abrahamic covenant, God will not tolerate the mistreatment and the oppression of His people. Hence, Nahum's message signifies the complete and absolute obliteration of the Assyrian Empire and its capital city, Nineveh.
