Patterson, Richard D.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;An excellent exegetical commentary. Available in Libronix format or in paperback. This is one of 3 commentaries in a set. Also checkout the commentaries by Finley and Merrill. Nahum When God revealed to Nahum the coming doom of Assyria and Nineveh, Nahum relayed that message to his countrymen with a poetic skill that is unequaled among the Minor Prophets. His powers of description are so superb that readers of all ages have marveled at the forcefulness and accuracy of his words. Nahum\u2019s good news of Nineveh\u2019s fall has not only reverberated across the pages of time but stands both as a reminder that God is in control of the flow of history and as a harbinger of the good news of God\u2019s ultimate purpose to sum up all history in His Son. Habakkuk Habakkuk wrestled with the perennial problem of the operation of God\u2019s holiness and justice in a world of spiritual and moral decay. Unable to resolve his problem apart from divine instruction, he came to God with hard questions. Habakkuk learned what every believer must come to realize: that Israel\u2019s Redeemer is in control of earth\u2019s history and does have a plan for its people; that God\u2019s high ethical standards are normative for all persons; and that mature believers will live their lives in total faith and trust in God, who alone is sufficient guide and resource for life\u2019s changing fortunes. Zephaniah Zephaniah is best remembered for his teachings concerning the Day of the Lord. But Zephaniah should also be remembered as a prophet of hope who looked beyond the impending judgment of mankind to an age when a purified and faithful people will serve God in truth and rejoice in the everlasting blessings of His love. Zephaniah\u2019s teachings remind all believers not only of God\u2019s standards and purposes but of the positive difference one believer can make in an unbelieving and materialistic society. His timeless warnings and message of hope need to be boldly proclaimed once again in today\u2019s self-serving world. &#8221; -Amazon.com<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here are a couple of other books on Nahum that you might enjoy<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/mn\/search\/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=wwwmbbcedusem-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;rh=n%3A283155%2Ck%3A0805401202&amp;field-keywords=0805401202&amp;url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&amp;ajr=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Micah, Nahum, Habakkuh, Zephaniah.
