Nahum / Question
Question source
Nahum
Nahum says Nineveh’s fortresses will be like fig trees with first-ripe figs that fall when shaken. The image suggests quick collapse and easy capture when the assault comes (Nahum 3:12).
12All your fortresses will be like fig-trees with the first-ripe figs: if they are shaken, they fall into the mouth of the eater.
