Nahum 3:10 Yet was she carried away,(((into prison and later deportment and scattered abroad as of mid summer 1994, to see the year 1995 as the first entire year they were indeed scattered as they were prophecied by David Koresh to be so in that timeline)))) she went into captivity: her young children also were dashed in pieces at the top of all the streets(((in Newspaper machines for 51 days on magazine racks in newsstands))): and they cast lots for her honourable men (((The visitors to David Koresh and Steve Schneider during the siege and as well seen in the public opinions at large and the speculations as to how such would end during the 51 day period as the world watched, I recall people making “Bets” as to how such would turn out…)))), and all her great men were bound in chains. ((( all for a time, some then longer)))”
So we see by chronology the event of verse 10 remembered…not prophecied forward, but prophecied back…the past called to surface to the one being addressed in the verses to follow….”Ethiopia and Egypt “WERE THY STRENGTH” not are, not will be, but “WERE.”
Vs 11 and 12 show reference to the wicked, to the Modern Assyrian and correlates to Revelation 18. NOT TO THE RIGHTEOUS. And these set the tone of who it is that is being actually addressed in vs. 14 and 15, an event which has not yet been fulfilled.
“11 Thou also shalt be drunken(((prophecied to occur in the soon future by Brother Houteff, then by David Koresh, and to occur on 4.19. 93…as “drunken with the Blood of the Saints” See Rev))) thou shalt be hid,(((consider that this passage, Nahum chapter 3, in fact not only correlates to Revelation 18 and the events of 9/11, but emphatically can be seen to perhaps then illustrate in it’s text a focus on WASHINGTON D.C. on 9/11 every bit as much as Revelation 18 may perhaps now be seen to emphasize New York City on the same day the American President after the air strikes being moved to a secure location))) thou also shalt seek strength because of the enemy. (((And after, the appeal of a U.S. Led Coalition to go to war in Afghanistan)))
12 All thy strong holds shall be like fig trees with the firstripe figs: if they be shaken, they shall even fall into the mouth of the eater.” ((( when “the War on Terror” was begun by President Bush in 2001, our Military bases, the primary strong holds were put on skeleton crews run by National Guardsmen as the main troops were deployed. Many were the articles in the first year of that event to the weakness of our bases, and now, such have been fortified. But in the days of 9/11, as perhaps now seen in Revelation 18…then we see those strongholds weakened like the branches of ripened fig trees.)))
Now in vs 13 to the end of Nahum 3, we can see when taken into context,that not only have the events of vs 14 and 15 not yet occurred, and as still future, but near future, correctly warned of as such By David and to be connected the event of Waco via the message of Revelation 18:1 and in Macro, but not for those who died, at that time, in the Micro to be witnessed directly and with first hand encounter. IN fact we will see that vs. 14 and 15 is aimed at the wicked, at the MODERN ASSYRIAN who is challenged to Magnify himself against the Most high, and who will try, and fail, and none shall help him.
13 Behold, thy people in the midst of thee are women: the gates of thy land shall be set wide open unto thine enemies: the fire shall devour thy bars.
14 Draw thee waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the morter, make strong the brickkiln.
15 There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm: make thyself many as the cankerworm, make thyself many as the locusts.
16 Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and fleeth away.
17 Thy crowned are as the locusts, and thy captains as the great grasshoppers, which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
18 Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria: thy nobles shall dwell in the dust: thy people is scattered upon the mountains, and no man gathereth them.
19 There is no healing of thy bruise; thy wound is grievous: all that hear the bruit of thee shall clap the hands over thee: for upon whom hath not thy wickedness passed continually?
Remember at the point of Nahum 3:13 in which a present time is about to be commented on. This is a time having occurred in the past has already been noted in vs 9 and 10 to the one about to be addressed and if a modern application truly is replaying and I believe such is…then one should consider that time of the years 1993 and following in relation to the Waco event. In lieu of such, and that timeframe in which the children of the Ehtiopian and Egypt who were the strength of the Modern Assyrian, the Righteous in the land were dashed in pieces, her honorable men were cast lots for, her great men bound in chains, is at the point of vs 13 a PAST EVENT. Already occurred as “Ethiopia and Egypt “WERE” Thy Strength” so we see the time present, at a time following vs 9,10, and likewise vs 11, 12…to see ourselves in our current stage, also correlated in the verses in Daniel 11:36 and forward….
13 Behold, thy people in the midst of thee are women: (((The rise in Homosexuality in the USA, the effeminate state of the men, the dominance of Feminism and the weak resolve of the populace…)))) the gates of thy land shall be set wide open unto thine enemies: the fire shall devour thy bars.
14 Draw thee waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the morter, make strong the brickkiln.
15 There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall eat thee up like the cankerworm: ((( NOW remember earlier in this study it was noted that this SIEGE and THIS FIRE are not that of the one which occurred at Waco, and when see who is actually being addressed here, we can rule out those who died in Mt. Carmel and that event, and then perhaps it can be considered the correlation to Revelation chapter 18, to a matter of sewing and reaping and to a matter of counsel in Revelation 18 to the righteous to “Reward her DOUBLY” And “ACCORDING AS SHE HAS GIVEN YOU.” While this event, it is being asserted here has not happened yet, such lends insight to the relationship this passage has in the MACRO to those who did die in Mt. Carmel durint “THAT” siege.”
This next part is not instruction to the righteous but a challenge to the wicked and not just any Wicked…but a certain one amongst the wicked whome we will see momentarily…keep reading….))))make thyself many as the cankerworm, make thyself many as the locusts.
16 Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spoileth, and fleeth away. (((THIS IN ITSELF…is proof enough against passages 14 and 15 being correctly applicable in past tense to those who died at Mt. Carmel in Waco on 4.19. 93
AT WHAT POINT since…have their numbers been multipled above the stars of heaven, let alone any merchants amongst them. HELL most of them cant get decent jobs due the prejudices against them, the same for many of us who have supported them morally or otherwise since 1993. AT WHAT POINT DID THIS HAPPEN? IT DIDN”T…and verse 16 continues speaking to the same person verse 14 and 15 were addressing and we will see him soon. But until we do, consider when I first Met Edna Doyle it was 1999. I only spoke to her very briefly. She was running the Mt. Carmel Survivors Museum on the property. I asked her for content to take with me. She handed me a tape and booklet. I asked what she wanted for it…she made a statement which I note has defined the survivors loyal to David Koresh to this day ever since and those who learned by their example…she said…”Oh, we are not asking any money for them, if you want give us a donation and feel led to do so, we will accept such, but David taught us that the Truth should not be sold, and was not meant to be for sale. You are welcome to the material free of charge, I cannot charge you for it.
David taught his students NOT TO MAKE MERCHANDISE OF THE TRUTH, but to LOVE IT. To SHARE IT AS THEY CAN, TO SEEK IT.
The world, they sell titles, pedigree, education, David warned and can be heard so that “when the world is paying you to go to seminary to learn about God, then you can bet that the world and the seminary are the SAME THING.”
17 Thy crowned are as the locusts, (((consider to the kings of industry…the dot.com era ushered in an age when those once considered “kings in this earth” by means of mammon were no longer a rarity. The age of the internet ushered in millionaires by the bushel, and merchants now numbered as LOCUSTS with every person on Ebay, and other sites is now a Merchant from their own living rooms and home offices….)))) and thy captains as the great grasshoppers, which camp in the hedges in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are. ((( again consider the age of the internet and the market place in which those ruling are not only ountouchable but out of sight entirely…)))
These passages…vs 11 forward are speaking to someone, and in such, not speaking to the righteous. And this passage we may well now at last see in light of Revelation chapter 18, and the events on 9/11 to be in progress, some fulfilled and some not as vs 11 forward deal with the “PRESENT” situation of the one being spoken too, while vs 9 and 10 which we correlate to Rev 18 and the events on 9/11 to while be speaking to the same person as the verses following, to have been raising the past to the conversation.
