Nineveh

Nineveh

Nineveh was the capital of Assyria which is associated with Babylon and the bondage of Egypt. It is a symbol of all the things wrong with the cities and rulers of power and tyranny like Cain, Nimrod, Babylon, Assyria, Pharaoh, and Caesar which is rooted in the power of contract with men who call themselves Benefactors but exercise authority one over the other.

These rulers of the Gentiles are the fathers of the earth who provide a daily ministration through force, fear, and fealty and the public religion of the State which is forms of socialism which like the Imperial Cult of Rome and the Corban of the Pharisees makes the word of God to none effect.

When the people are slothful in the way of righteousness and have an appetite for the wages of unrighteousness, they return to the yoke of bondage and the land of Egypt.
