Nah 3:5 | JFB | STEP | 5. I will discover thy skirts upon thy face-- that is, discover thy nakedness by throwing up thy skirts upon thy face (the greatest possible insult), pulling them up as as high as thy head ( ; ). I will treat thee not as a matron, but as a harlot whose shame is exposed; her gaudy finery being lifted up off her ( , ). So Nineveh shall be stripped of all her glory and defenses on which she prides herself.

‏ Nahum 3:5

5. I will discover thy skirts upon thy face--that is, discover thy nakedness by throwing up thy skirts upon thy face (the greatest possible insult), pulling them up as as high as thy head (Jr 13:22; Eze 16:37-41). I will treat thee not as a matron, but as a harlot whose shame is exposed; her gaudy finery being lifted up off her (Is 47:2, 3). So Nineveh shall be stripped of all her glory and defenses on which she prides herself.
