Learn who the Ninevites were, the people who lived in the city of Nineveh in ancient times. Understand why the Ninevites are among the cruelest people in history. BIBLE COURSE FOR TRAINING IN THEOLOGY: ► https://bit.ly/estude-teologia-online As the name suggests, the Ninevites were the inhabitants of the city of Nineveh, an Assyrian city located in the region of the Tigris River. At its peak, the Ninevites lived in one of the most important cities in ancient times. In fact, under King Sennacherib, the city of Nineveh became the capital of Assyria. The Assyrian Empire was one of the largest empires the world has ever seen, and it was a true military and administrative powerhouse that extended over a vast territory. As the capital of the Assyrian Empire, the city of Nineveh was also an important cultural, artistic and religious center. But the Ninevites were ruthless. In fact, the Assyrians, in general, have been marked in history as one of the cruelest peoples that ever existed. If we make a list of the cruelest peoples in history, the people of Nineveh cannot be left out. In fact, the Bible itself testifies to the atrocities committed by the Ninevites. One of the most popular biblical stories is certainly the story of the prophet Jonah in his attempt to escape God's order that he should preach to the Ninevites. In Jonah's day, the Ninevites repented, but as soon as that generation passed, they returned to their terrible practices. In the Bible, the prophets Nahum and Zephaniah prophesied the fall of the city of Nineveh and the destruction of the Ninevites in 612 B.C.
