First Bible Cartoon for Nahum!

Posted 07 Oct 2015

Nahum 03 – Woe to Nineveh – Scene 01 – Nineveh witch harlot (Version 01)

I have just finished two versions of a Bible Cartoon for the Old Testament book of Nahum, a so-called minor prophet. Nahum was given a message from God regarding the Assyrian city of Nineveh. In the 3rd chapter of Nahum, God refers to Nineveh as an idolatrous prostitute.

In my scene I have drawn a woman in a red gown, standing in front of the city of Nineveh. She is the personification of the Assyrian city.

I decided to make 2 versions of this scene:
Version 01) (above) Nineveh witch harlot with all the objects on the ground & snake rapped around leg.
Version 02) (see below) Nineveh witch harlot WITHOUT all the objects on the ground & snake rapped around leg.
I created the 2 versions in case the occult objects cause concern for some viewers/customers.

In case you are wondering what the woman looks before God hurls filth at her, here she is:

Here are 3 close-up views of some elements of the scene:

Nahum 03 – Woe to Nineveh – Scene 01 – Nineveh witch harlot PARTIAL 02

Nahum 03 – Woe to Nineveh – Scene 01 – Nineveh witch harlot PARTIAL 03

You will see from my picture that I have added lots of dirt & mud on the woman’s skin & red dress, which is a reference to verse 6 “I will pelt you with filth,” which is the Hebrew word shik·küts’, which translates into detestable thing or idol, abominable thing, abomination, idol, detested & filthy thing. The Message version translates the word into “dog dung” by the way!
