미가 7:10-20 KRV

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Micah 7:18

Who is a God like unto thee ,.... There is no God besides him, none so great, so mighty, as he; none like him for the perfections of his nature; for the works of his hands; for the blessings of his goodness, both of providence and grace; and particularly for his pardoning grace and mercy, as follows: that pardoneth iniquity : that "lifts" it up, and "takes" it away, as the word F20 נשא "tollens", Montanus, Tigurine version, Calvin; "aufercus", Drusius; "qui aufers", Grotius. ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Micah 7:19

He will turn again ,.... From his anger, and show his face and favour; which is not inconsistent with his everlasting and unchangeable love; for anger is not opposite to love, and is only a displicency at sin, and not at the persons of his people; and, properly speaking, is not in God; is rather in appearance than in reality; when his people sin against him, he shows himself as if he was angry; he turns away from them, and withdraws his gracious presence and sensible communion from them; but... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Micah 7:20

Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob ,.... That is, the promise made to Jacob, the Lord would faithfully perform and make good to his posterity, natural and spiritual, especially to those who are Israelites indeed; and the mercy to Abraham ; the gracious promises made to him, which sprung from mere grace and mercy; all respecting his natural and spiritual seed; and especially the promise of the coming of the Messiah, that seed of his in which all nations of the earth were to be... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:10

Then she that is mine enemy - This may refer particularly to the city of Babylon. Shall she be trodden down - Literally fulfilled in the package of that city by the Persians, and its consequent total ruin. It became as mire; its walls, formed of brick kneaded with straw and baked in the sun, becoming exposed to the wet, dissolved, so that a vestige of the city remains not, except a few bricks digged from under the rubbish, several pieces of which now lie before me, and show the perishing... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:11

In the day that thy walls are to be built - This refers to Jerusalem; the decree, to the purpose of God to deliver the people into captivity. "This shall be far removed." God having purposed their return, I cannot think, with some commentators, that this verse contains threatenings against Jerusalem, and not promises. See Haggai 1:1-15 ; (note), where the subject is similar; and the restoration of Jerusalem is certainly what the prophet describes. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:12

In that day also he shall come - Bp. Newcome translates: - "And in that day they shall come unto thee From Assyria and the fenced cities; And from Egypt even unto the river." Calmet translates: - "They shall come to thee from Assyria even unto Egypt; And from Egypt even to the river; (Euphrates); And from one sea to another, and from one mountain to another." This, says he, gives an easy sense; whereas we cannot tell where to find those fortified cities spoken of by other... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:13

Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate - This should be translated in the preter tense, "Though the land Had been desolate;" that is, the land of Israel had been desolate during the captivity, which captivity was the "fruit of the evil doings of them that had dwelt therein." read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:14

Feed thy people with thy rod - בשבטך beshibtecha , "with thy crook." The shepherd's crook is most certainly designed, as the word flock immediately following shows. No rod of correction or affliction is here intended; nor does the word mean such. Solitarily - They have been long without a shepherd or spiritual governor. In the midst of Carmel - Very fruitful in vines. Bashan and Gilead - Proverbially fruitful in pasturages. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:15

According to the days - This is the answer to the prophet's prayer; and God says he will protect, save, defend, and work miracles for them in their restoration, such as he wrought for their fathers in their return from Egypt to the promised land. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:16

The nations shall see and be confounded - Whether the words in these verses ( Micah 7:15-17 ;) be applied to the return from the Babylonish captivity, or to the prosperity of the Jews under the Maccabees, they may be understood as ultimately applicable to the final restoration of this people, and their lasting prosperity under the Gospel. read more
