Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Malachi 3:7-12

7-12 The men of that generation turned away from God, they had not kept his ordinances. God gives them a gracious call. But they said, Wherein shall we return? God notices what returns our hearts make to the calls of his word. It shows great perverseness in sin, when men make afflictions excuses for sin, which are sent to part between them and their sins. Here is an earnest exhortation to reform. God must be served in the first place; and the interest of our souls ought to be preferred before... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Malachi 3:1-99

Malachi 3 The full answer to all this is that God Himself was going to intervene in a very personal way. In the first verse we have in the first place, 'My messenger', or 'angel.' 'He is to prepare the way before Me'; the 'Me' here evidently being Jehovah. Then, thirdly, there is the 'Lord', or 'Master', who is the 'Messenger', or, 'Angel of the covenant', clearly distinguished from the angel first mentioned. In this very close way the coming Messiah is identified with the Jehovah who sends... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Malachi 3:7-12

The People Rebuked v. 7. Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from Mine ordinances and have not kept them, this being the reason why He has withheld the fullness of His blessing and salvation from them. Return unto Me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts, His appeal being made in all Sincerity, since He wants all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. But ye said, still blind toward their transgressions, Wherein shall we return? They did... read more

SECTION VThe People are rebuked for withholding the legal Tithes and Offerings3:7–127Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of Hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? 8Will a man rob5 [defraud] God? Yet [ that, Köhler, Keil, Pressel], ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.6 [In tithe and heave offering.] 9Ye are cursed with a... read more

Malachi THE LAST WORD OF PROPHECY Mal_3:1 - Mal_3:12 . Deep obscurity surrounds the person of this last of the prophets. It is questioned whether Malachi is a proper name at all. It is the Hebrew word rendered in Mal_3:1 of our passage ‘My messenger,’ and this has led many authorities to contend that the prophecy is in fact anonymous, the name being only a designation of office. Whether this is so or not, the name, if it is a name, is all that we know about him. The tenor of his prophecy... read more

a Purging from Evil Malachi 3:1-12 The opening verses of this chapter stir the heart like the call of a trumpet. We remember how literally they were fulfilled in the presentation of our Lord in the Temple by His parents. Unnoticed by the crowds, jostled amid the press, borne in the arms of poverty, the King suddenly came to His Temple, even the Messenger of the Covenant. Only two faithful retainers, Simeon and Anna, were there to welcome Him. But there is another and more personal reference.... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Malachi 3:1-18

The last division of the Book contains the prophet's announcement of the coming of Messiah. It falls into three sections, one dealing with the coming One, one dealing with the Coming Day, and one uttering the closing words. The prophet announced the advent of Jehovah's Messenger, describing His Person and the process of His administration, and finally declaring the principle of the unchangeableness of Jehovah. He next appealed to the nation generally, calling the people, to return, and then... read more

The Tithe Chapter Malachi 3:1-11 INTRODUCTORY WORDS When one reads the Book of Malachi he would think that the Holy Spirit was writing a message to the churches of the twentieth century, especially to that part of the church which has become more or less lukewarm toward the Master. It is true that ages do repeat themselves. Conditions which prevailed in the ending of one age are quite liable to prevail in the ending of another age. Admonitions and instructions given to one people are sure to... read more

Vital Questions Malachi 1:1-14 ; Malachi 2:1-17 ; Malachi 3:1-18 INTRODUCTORY WORDS The Book of Malachi presents questions asked by God. In response, instead of a direct answer, the chosen people, Israel, ask God questions in return. As these pairs of questionings have to do with the theme in hand, we have decided to give a brief description of the varied questions that are in the Book as a whole. 1. The first pair of questions. God says, "A son honoureth his father, and a servant his... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Malachi 3:7-12

YHWH Brings A Further Charge Against His People. They Have Failed in Their Offering Of Tithes (Malachi 3:7-12 ). There were no doubt some who could still feel pretty pleased with themselves. They could insist that they had not brought defective offerings (Malachi 1:7-14), that they had not married foreign wives who introduced idolatry (Malachi 2:10-11), that they had not divorced their wives (Malachi 2:14-16), that they had not been complacent about the sins of Israel (Malachi 2:17). So now... read more
