Jeremiah 26:18 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

This was that Micah whose prophecies are part of holy writ, as appeareth by Micah 1:1, Micah 3:12, where are the very words of the prophecy here mentioned. The substance of that prophecy was the same with this of Jeremiah, that Zion should be ploughed up, and the place where the temple stood should become so desolate that trees should grow there, as in a wood or forest.

Jeremiah 26:18

18 Micah the Morasthite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and spake to all the people of Judah, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Zion shall be plowed like a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.
