彌迦書 5:4 RCUVTS

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Micah 5:2-15

Having thus described the coming deliverance, Micah utters the wonderful prophecy concerning the Deliverer and the deliverance under His administration. The Person of the Deliverer is first described. He is One whose goings forth are from of old, and when He comes it will be to Bethlehem-Ephrathah. Next, His program is described. Its first movement will be abandoning the people, and the second gathering and feeding them. The central declaration of the whole prophecy is found in this... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 5:2-9

Micah 5:2-1 Samuel : . Messianic Anticipations.— This paragraph, like the last, seems to consist of several separate prophecies, viz. Micah 5:2-Numbers :, describing the emergence of a triumphant Davidic ruler; Micah 5:5 f., deliverance from the “ Assyrian” through leaders raised by the people; Micah 5:7-1 Samuel :, the multitude and irresistible might of the remnant of Israel. All these seem to be post-exilic, though some, taking “ Assyrian” literally, refer the second to Micah. The clan of... read more

He, the Ruler born in Bethlehem, the Messiah, shall stand: sometimes this posture denoteth the ministry of a servant, but here it speaks the readiness, cheerfulness, firmness, and stability of both the ruler, his government, and kingdom. Feed; as a Shepherd that does diligently watch over, guide, preserve, and feed his sheep, or as rulers are called shepherds. Christ is that good Shepherd, John 10:14; and he is the righteous and holy Governor, and his government shall have no end, Isaiah 9:7.... read more

Of thieves, that is, the Chaldeans, who having robbed all the nations of Asia, came to Jerusalem, and robbed the whole land, smote Zedekiah with the severe rod of correction, and put out his eyes. The hope of the church then lay in the healer, as in the next verse. Under these, the severest strokes of trouble, the prophet drives the flock into the fold of Christ. They shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek. Hoshea, on the taking of... read more
