Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Nahum 3:18

"Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria; thy nobles are at rest; thy people are scattered upon the mountains, and there is none to gather them.""Slumber ... rest ..." The mighty men of Assyria are dead. The judgment of God has fallen upon them. The thought that, "they slumber and take their ease"[37] is not in the passage. "Sleep" here "must be taken in the sense of death."[38]"Scattered upon the mountains ..." Nineveh was shut in on the north by very rugged, impassable mountains. "None to... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Nahum 3:19

"There is no assuaging of thy hurt; thy wound is grievous: all that hear the report of thee clap their hands over thee; for upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?""There is no assuaging of thy hurt ..." is sometimes rendered "no healing of thy bruise." The finality and permanence of the destruction of Nineveh appears repeatedly through the prophecy. Note the following:I will make thy grave, for thou art vile (Nahum 1:14). The wicked one shall no more pass through thee; he is... read more

Nahum 3:17-19. Their place is not known— What probability was there, that the capital city of a great kingdom, a city which was sixty miles in compass, a city which contained so many thousand inhabitants, a city which had walls a hundred feet high, and so thick that three chariots could go abreast upon them, and which had 1500 towers of 200 feet in height;—what probability was there that such a city should ever be totally destroyed? and yet so totally was it destroyed, that the place is hardly... read more

Rather, "lie in death's sleep, having been slain" [JEROME] (Exodus 15:16; Psalms 76:6). shall dwell in the dust — (Psalms 7:5; Psalms 94:17). thy people is scattered—the necessary consequence of their leaders being laid low (Psalms 94:17- :). read more

The sole descendants of the ancient Assyrians and Babylonians in the whole country are the Nestorian Christians, who speak a Chaldean language [LAYARD]. upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?—implying God's long forbearance, and the consequent enormity of Assyria's guilt, rendering her case one that admitted no hope of restoration. read more

4. The fourth description of Nineveh’s fall 3:8-19This section, evidently another message that Nahum delivered concerning Nineveh’s fall, begins by comparing it to the fall of another great city. Nahum proceeded to use many figures of speech to describe how various segments of Ninevite society would respond to the coming invasion. The literary form of the section is that of a taunt song.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Nahum 3:18

Nahum addressed the king of Assyria who would rule after Nineveh’s downfall (in 612 B.C.). This turned out to be Ashur-uballit who tried for three years to hold the empire together from the city of Haran. The prophet told the king that Assyria’s shepherds (leaders) and nobles were not providing leadership for their people. They were lying down on the job, asleep at the switch (cf. Isaiah 5:26-27). The ordinary citizens were scattered all over rather than being under the direction of the... read more
