Nahum 2:4 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

In the streets — Of Nineveh, when taken. Justle — By reason of their multitude and fury. In the broad ways — Where is most room, and yet scarce enough for them to move. Like torches — What with sparkling fire caused by their horses and chariots, what with the glittering of the polished irons about them, and what with the light of flaming torches carried in them. Like the lightnings — Both for speed, irrestibleness and terror.

Nahum 2:4

4 The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.
