Nahum
1:6 Who can stand before His indignation?
Who can endure the heat of His anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire,
and the rocks are broken into pieces by Him.
YHWH's wrath and anger are so great that not a soul can endure them. Christ did!
Fire is often used as a way of YHWH's presence manifesting...burning bush, pillar of fire, Sodom & Gomorrah, etc.
Rocks are shattered by YHWH. Rocks are used again, as in verse 5, as an image of permanence and stability. YHWH is powerful enough to shatter something so permanent. He can melt the heart of stone. See how powerful He is??
Sorry this took so long to put up. The internet here has been a little weird this past week.
