Study Note
'Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.' Nahum's oracle against Nineveh opens with a theophany hymn establishing God's absolute sovereignty in judgment — before pronouncing Assyria's doom, the prophet establishes that no created power can resist divine wrath. The rhetorical questions ('who can stand?') echo Joel 2:11, Malachi 3:2, and Revelation 6:17, creating a tradition of divine-wrath rhetorical challenge across the prophetic corpus. Hebrews 12:29 — 'our God is a consuming fire' — applies the same imagery to the New Covenant context of approaching God in awe.
