Micah 2:3-6 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

When we consider the Lord's dealings with Israel, we cannot sufficiently lament their depravity. Other nations of the earth, which knew not the Lord, we behold with a different aspect to that of the seed of Jacob. A family like this, so blessed, so fed, so taught, and so protected! What apology can be made for their apostacy! surely every beholder must be astonished!

Micah 2:3-6

3 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time is evil.

4 In that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a dolefulb lamentation, and say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed it from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.

5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD.

6 Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame.
