Places
Nineveh in Isaiah 37
NIN-uh-vuh
This place shows up in Isaiah 37:37: “So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, went away, returned to Nineveh, and stayed there.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Isaiah 37:37
“So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, went away, returned to Nineveh, and stayed there.”
