Summary of Nahum Chapter 2
Something has come that divides and scatters the people[1] which was seen in the story of Nimrod and Babylon. We are warned to watch the way and strengthen our loins.[2] This is done by living by the ways of love, charity, and hope., not force, fear, and fealty under Assyrian contracts which mars and empties[3] the vine of fruit.
They cast their wealth away and the lion's heart disappeared from their society. And God will not hear them because they will not hear the cries of one another so that the "the sword shall devour thy young lions".
Without Repentance and a return to a daily ministration of Pure Religion through charity and the perfect law of liberty the people will be devoured and ruined.
- ↑ Genesis 11:4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top [may reach] unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
- 5 ¶ And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. 6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech. 8 So the LORD scattered them abroad( נָפ֖וּץ NunPeiVavTzadik)from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. 9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
