Zion in the Book of Nahum

Several scholars pointed out the non-mention of Zion in the Book of Nahum. Some of them even tried to explain this lack of mention. While it is true that neither Zion nor Jerusalem are explicitly referred to in Nahum, there are various points in Nahum where allusions to Zion are made implicitly. It is the purpose of this paper to uncover these allusions and provide an explanation for their presence.
