Nahum 3:12 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

All thy strong holds, castles and fortified places, not one or two, but all of them, shall be like fig trees, easily shaken, with the first-ripe figs, whose weight and ripeness will bring them quickly to the ground. If they be shaken, if but very lightly touched. they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater; into the hand of devouring and hungry ones.

Nahum 3:12

12 All thy strong holds shall be like fig trees with the firstripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater.
