Commentary on Nahum 1:5

Theological / Devotional

Mountains quake. The prophet here presents a most awe-inspiring picture of God’s power.

All that dwell. Verses 3-6 describe God’s power and hence His ability to carry out the predicted destruction of Nineveh (see PK 364). The manifestation of God’s power here described will be seen in a much greater display at the time of the second coming of Christ (see PP 109).
