v1 The "bloody city"[1] is a cauldron and is associated with "Thy wife shall be an harlot in the city" we saw in Amos 7:17 but here Nahum says she "selleth nations through her whoredoms" v4
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary v 1-7 "When proud sinners are brought down, others should learn not to lift themselves up. The fall of this great city should be a lesson to private persons, who increase wealth by fraud and oppression." Proverbs' One purse speaks of this greed for gain and the snare created by consent and the knife we should put tour throat if we have an appetite for the deceitful meats of the king and his husbandmen[2].
Because of a wellfavoured[3] harlot, and a whoredom that selleth nations and a Witchcraft that selleth families the whole world has returned to the bondage of Egypt.
The LORD is against this process because it makes the word of God to none effect and while they are reduced to human resources/merchandise they are also degenerate the people into perfect savages. Everything will be "laid waste".
The legal charity offered by rulers who call themselves benefactors and become the fathers of the earth offering the dainties sacrificed to idols are the same as Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh which all bring about the bondage of Egypt.
Barnes' Notes tells us that the "city of bloods" told about in Habakkuk 2:12;[4] and Jeremiah 22:13,[5] "as the prosperity of the world".
The people become merchandise because of their covetous practices.
The "shepherds slumber" because your ministers are asleep. Your rulers are the "of Assyria" and thy people is scattered upon the mountains, and no man gathereth them."
You must choose to gather yourselves together as you repent and seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness by sitting down in the Network of Tens as Christ commanded and learn to love one another in faith, hope, and charity rather than the force, fear and fealty of the wages of unrighteousness you and generations have pursued for a hundred years through those who work mischief through their civil systems of legal charity like FDR and LBJ.

1 ¶ Woe to the bloody[6] city![1] it is all full of lies and robbery; the prey departeth not;

2 The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the pransing horses, and of the jumping chariots.

3 The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcases; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses:

4 Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured[3] harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts[7], that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts.[7]

5 Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts; and I will discover[8] thy skirts [9] upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness[10], and the kingdoms[11] thy shame[12].

6 And I will cast[13] abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile[14], and will set thee[15] as a gazingstock[16].

7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh[17] is laid waste: who will bemoan her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?


8 Art thou better than populous No, that was situate among the rivers, that had the waters round about it, whose rampart was the sea, and her wall was from the sea?

9 Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength, and it was infinite; Put and Lubim were thy helpers.

10 Yet was she carried away, she went into captivity: her young children also were dashed in pieces at the top of all the streets: and they cast lots for her honourable men, and all her great men were bound in chains.

11 Thou also shalt be drunken: thou shalt be hid, thou also shalt seek strength because of the enemy.

12 All thy strong holds shall be like fig trees with the firstripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater.

13 Behold, thy people in the midst of thee are women: the gates of thy land shall be set wide open unto thine enemies: the fire shall devour thy bars.

14 Draw thee waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the morter, make strong the brickkiln.

15 There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm[18]: make thyself many as the cankerworm[18], make thyself many as the locusts[19].

16 Thou hast multiplied thy merchants[20] above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm[18] spoileth, and flieth away.

17 Thy crowned[21]are as the locusts[19], and thy captains as the great grasshoppers[22], which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.

18 Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria: thy nobles shall dwell in the dust: thy people is scattered upon the mountains, and no man gathereth them.

19 There is no healing of thy bruise; thy wound is grievous: all that hear the bruit of thee shall clap the hands over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?

Summary of Nahum Chapter 3

The whoredom with the strange woman was a form of whoredom that brings whips and chariots. The witchcraft was associated with what was called sorcery which was associated with the metaphor of something the deceptive and seductive that was in turn associated with of idolatry or in the New Testament Witchcraft.

God will expose the face behind the curtain/skirt "and I will shew the nations thy nakedness which is the lack of authority and the shame of their kingdoms. What was once great will be "laid waste" and will not find the "comforters".

Though she was strong "she went into captivity" and the swarms of office eat her up. "Thy shepherds slumber" because you whored after the king of Assyria. Thy people are scattered upon the mountains because they have forgotten the bands of liberty and desired the bands of bondage that come with the wages of unrighteousness.
