The burden of Nineveh.
The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
The LORD is a jealous God and avengeth;
the LORD avengeth and is full of wrath;
the LORD taketh vengeance on his adversaries,
and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.
The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power,
and will by no means clear the guilty:
the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and storm,
and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry,
and drieth up all the rivers:
Bashan languisheth, and Carmel,
and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.
The mountains quake at him,
and the hills melt;
and the earth is upheaved at his presence,
yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
Who can stand before his indignation?
and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger?
his fury is poured out like fire,
and the rocks are broken asunder by him.
Robert A. Morey, Death and the Afterlife (Minneapolis: Bethany House, 1984). ISBN: 0871234335 (paperback edition 076422686X). "For readers seeking a scholarly, thorough discussion of the biblical doctrine of death and the afterlife, this volume will provide the answer. It is one of the most extensive and scholarly discussions of the subject which has come to the attention of this reviewer. Morey has covered a wide range of research and holds solidly to conservative orthodox theology on the reality of heaven, hell, and life after this life. The book deals with biblical terms relating to the subject, such as spirit, soul, body, Sheol, Gehenna, and eternal punishment. The second half of the book is an apologetic for the biblical teaching on the subject of death and a defense of scriptural teaching as opposed to liberal views of annihilationism and universal salvation. Comprehensive indexes and an extensive bibliography support the conclusions of the author." --J. F. Walvoord.
