Page "Book of Nahum" Paragraph 13

From its opening, Nahum shows God to be slow to anger but that He will by no means clear the guilty, but will bring his vengeance and wrath to pass.

God is presented as a God who will punish evil but will protect those who trust in Him.

The opening passage ( Nahum 1: 2-3 ) states: " God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth ; the LORD revengeth, and is furious ; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.

The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked ".

God is strong and will use means, but a mighty God doesn't need anyone else to carry out vengeance and wrath for him.
