Micah 2:10 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Arise ye, and depart Ye Israelites prepare for your departure out of this land, for it shall be no longer yours; it is not your rest, because it is polluted Though it was given to the posterity of Jacob for a place of rest, under my protection, yet this was on condition of their continued obedience. And because you have polluted it by your sins You shall be cast out of it, or shall be destroyed in it; even with a sore destruction This threatening is to the same effect with the declaration made by Moses concerning the Canaanites whom God drove out before Israel. The land is defiled, therefore do I visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants. And it accords with the solemn caution which God then gave his people, saying, Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and shall not commit any of these abominations; that the land spew not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spewed out the nations that were before you, Leviticus 18:25-28.

Micah 2:10

10 Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.
