Nahúm 1:6 Meaning and Commentary

Nahum 1:6

Who can stand before his indignation?
&c.] No creature whatever; no man nor body of men; not Nineveh, and the inhabitants of it; nor the whole Assyrian empire: and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger?
not the great men of the earth; not kings or generals of armies; not kingdoms and nations, ever so numerous and powerful; but all must be consumed by him, who is a consuming fire; see ( Jeremiah 10:10 ) ( Revelation 6:15-17 ) ; his fury is poured out like fire;
or like metal that is melted by fire, and poured out by the force of it; or like fire of lightning poured out of the heavens, which is quick, powerful, and penetrating, and there is no resisting it: and the rocks are thrown down by him;
by the Lord, by his wrath and fury; kingdoms that seemed as strong and immovable as rocks and mountains are thrown down; as such have been by the force of fire bursting from the midst of them, as Etna, Vesuvius, and others.

Nahúm 1:6 In-Context

4 El reprende al mar y lo hace secar, y todos los ríos agota. Languidecen Basán y el Carmelo, y las flores del Líbano se marchitan.
5 Los montes tiemblan ante El, y los collados se derriten; sí, en su presencia se levanta la tierra, el mundo y todos los que en él habitan.
6 En presencia de su indignación, ¿quién resistirá? ¿Quién se mantendrá en pie ante el ardor de su ira? Su furor se derrama como fuego, y las rocas se despedazan ante El.
7 Bueno es el SEÑOR, una fortaleza en el día de la angustia, y conoce a los que en El se refugian.
8 Pero con inundación desbordante pondrá fin a Nínive, y perseguirá a sus enemigos aun en las tinieblas.
