2. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Nahum
   consolation, the seventh of the so-called minor prophets, an
   Elkoshite. All we know of him is recorded in the book of his
   prophecies. He was probably a native of Galilee, and after the
   deportation of the ten tribes took up his residence in
   Jerusalem. Others think that Elkosh was the name of a place on
   the east bank of the Tigris, and that Nahum dwelt there.
