Nahum 3:8

God shows no partiality we are all guilty and in need of a Savior. He provided the way to the truth of eternal life with Him through Jesus Christ… it is up to us individually to accept or reject it. But make no mistake He loves all men, in all nations, not just a chosen few..“John 3:16”. But He alone is God and false gods He will not tolerate especially from those nations who call on His name.

partiality |ˌpärSHēˈalitē|
noun
unfair bias in favor of one thing or person compared with another; favoritism

ORIGIN late Middle English: from Old French parcialite, from medieval Latin partialitas, based on Latin pars, part- ‘part.’


 The destruction of the city of Thebes near the Nile River in 663 b.c. was going to be a template for the destruction of Nineveh. No Amon is the Hebrew name for Thebes, derived from the Egyptian name meaning “City of [the god] Amon.” The argument seems to suggest that before its destruction, no one would have even dreamed of the fall of Thebes. But the destruction had happened—not long before the writing of the Book of Nahum. The city of Thebes was rebuilt only to be destroyed later during the Roman period (29 b.c.). Nineveh, however, would never be rebuilt.

Nahum 3:8
8 Are you better than No Amon
That was situated by the River,
That had the waters around her,
Whose rampart was the sea,
Whose wall was the sea?


2Go over to Calneh and see; And from there go to Hamath the great; Then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are you better than these kingdoms? Or is their territory greater than your territory? 
Amos 6:2

The Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring punishment on Amon of No, and Pharaoh and Egypt, with their gods and their kings—Pharaoh and those who trust in him. 
Jeremiah 46:25

14I will make Pathros desolate, Set fire to Zoan, And execute judgments in No. 15I will pour My fury on Sin, the strength of Egypt; I will cut off the multitude of No, 16And set a fire in Egypt; Sin shall have great pain, No shall be split open, And Noph shall be in distress daily. 

Ezekiel 30:14–16
