Lesson Overview

This lesson explores God’s messages to a dying nation. When Judah’s sin led her to the depths of disobedience, God maintained His faithfulness to His covenant while judging Judah for her rejection of it.

Lesson Objectives

When you complete this lesson, you should be able to do the following:

  • Explain why Jonah so vigorously resisted God’s call for him to salvage Nineveh from divine destruction.
  • Place Jonah and Nahum in their historical setting so you can understand their messages.
  • Explain and illustrate God’s compassion on people who reject Him.
  • Increase your understanding of God’s call to proclaim the Gospel to all nations.

Personal Reflection

As you proceed through this lesson have the following question in mind.
What are the implications of the books of Jonah and Nahum for how we should view those we consider to be our enemies and enemies of God?
