Evildoers End
The Lord will bring an end to Nineveh (present day Mosul,
Iraq), and some of her descendants who were born there, such
as the Antichrist (Nah. 1:11, 14).
8The whole seventh chapter of Ezekiel speaks about The
End. At the end, God’s anger is unleashed. One can see in this
chapter things that will happen throughout the tribulation as
well as at the end. These are the same events that are detailed
in the book of Revelation.
The end brings separation of the sheep and the goats (fig-
uratively, the good and the evil). These are the people who
make it through the tribulation period alive and are on the
earth when God reveals Himself (Zech. 12:10). The evil are
separated (as they were in Noah’s day):
“Two men will be in
the field; one will be taken and the other left”
(Matt. 24:40).
Jesus will first put the evildoers on His left side (Matt. 25:33),
and then into eternal fire (Matt. 25:41).
Man’s System Ends
Man’s week in the sun ends; his politics centered at Rome,
his religion centered at Israel, and his commerce centered at
Babylon, all come to a prophesied end. Man’s new “miracu-
lous” world order, created by the illustrious and charismatic
Antichrist, crashes like a lead balloon!
8
Nahum speaks of one who has come forth from Ninevah who plots evil. It
is unlikely that this verse is referring to King Sennacherib (King of Assyria),
a type of the Antichrist, for the Day of the Lord (the End) is in view here.
See verses 2, 5, 12, and 15.
