The eight Section, of Nahum.

Nahum euen as Ionas did, directeth his prophesie to Ni∣niuie the great citie of the Assyrians, which is now called Ni∣nus. And because y^e Niniuites, after God had mercifully relea∣sed the punishment foretold by Ionas, committed greater of∣fences then before; this Prophet Nahum doth denounce vnto the said Niniuites, & to al y^e persecuters of Israel, Gods iudg∣ment and euerlasting captiuitie. And withall hee comforteth the faithfull, shewing that the destruction of their enemies shall be for their consolation. Nah. cap 1.2.3. Hier. in proaem.

Nahum was the sonne of Helkeseus, who after the tradition of the Hebrewes, was also himselfe a prophet. He prophesied in the time of Ezechias. Hier & Gloss. After Iosephus he pro∣phesied in the time of Ioatham king of Iuda. Ioseph. antiq. lib 9 cap. 11. All thinges foretold of Niniuie, were fulfilled in the hundred and fiteenth yeare, Iosephus Ibidem.
