Jonah & Nahum

JONAH: The book of Jonah demonstrates that Yahweh is the Savior of both Jews and Gentiles. Instead of immediately destroying the Ninevites for their wickedness, God raised up Jonah to proclaim God's grace to them. NAHUM: In a sequel to the story, over a hundred years after Jonah preached to Nineveh, God raised up Nahum to pronounce judgment on the Ninevites. While the Ninevites in Jonah's day repented and received mercy, later generations returned to their wicked ways and became objects of God's wrath.
