弥迦书 6:10 CUVS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Micah 6:9-16

God, having shown them how necessary it was that they should do justly, here shows them how plain it was that they had done unjustly; and since they submitted not to his controversy, nor went the right way to have it taken up, here he proceeds in it. Observe, I. How the action is entered against them, Mic. 6:9. God speaks to the city, to Jerusalem, to Samaria. His voice cries to it by his servants the prophets who were to cry aloud and not spare. Note, The voice of the prophets is the Lord's... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Micah 6:10

Are there yet the treasures of wickedness the house of the wicked ?.... There are; they continue there. This is the voice of the Lord by the prophet, and the language of the rod of correction to be heard, exposing the sins of the people, for which the Lord had a controversy with them; particularly their mammon of unrighteousness, the vast wealth, riches, and treasures, collected together by very wicked and unlawful ways and means; and which, instead of restoring them to the persons they had... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 6:10

Are there yet the treasures of wickedness - Such as false balances and deceitful weights. See on Hosea 12:7 ; (note). This shows that they were not Doing Justly. They did not give to each his due. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 6:10

Verse 10 Interpreters differ as to the word האש, eash: some think that it ought to be read האיש, eaish, with an addition of two letters, and render it, “Is it yet man?” But this would render the passage abrupt. Others translate, “Is there yet fire?” As though it was אש, ash; and they suppose that wealth, wickedly and unjustly got, is so called, because it consumes itself. But as this is against what grammar requires, I am more inclined to take their view, who think that האש, eash, is to be... read more

Divine chastisement. I. A SOLEMN DECLARATION OF COMING CHASTISEMENT . ( Micah 6:13-15 .) The form this chastisement would assume is suggestive of the thought of utter disappointment. Their gain should be turned into loss; their expectations should be completely frustrated; all that they hoped to realize as the result of their deceptions and extortions should fail them, even as the brook fails the parched traveller when coming to it to slake his burning thirst, lo! he finds... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Micah 6:10

The reproof is given in the form of questions, in order to rouse the sleeping conscience of the people. Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked? Do the wicked still continue to bring into their houses treasures obtained by wrong? The old versions compare this ill-gotten wealth to a fire which shall consume the homes of its possessors. Septuagint, ΄ὴ πῦρ καὶ οἶκος ἀνόμου θησαυρίζω θησαυρουμους ; "Is there fire and the house of the wicked treasuring... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Micah 6:10-12

Weighed in the balances, and found wanting. Having expounded the nature of true piety, the prophet, proceeds in these verses to apply the principles thus enunciated to the case of his people, endeavouring by means of searching inquiries to bring home to their hearts a sense of their guilt and depravity. I. WE HAVE HERE AN ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE OF HUMAN CONDUCT WHEN TESTED BY THE DIVINE REQUIREMENTS BEING FOUND WANTING . Notice in this case: 1 . ... read more

Civic sins. "Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable? Shall I count them pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights? For the rich men thereof are full of violence," etc. In these verses we have specified a sample of the crimes which abounded in the city, and which would bring on the threatened judgment. The passage leads us to make two remarks concerning civic sins, or the sins of a city. ... read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Micah 6:10

Are there yet - Still after all the warnings and long-suffering of God, “the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked?” “Treasures of wickedness” are treasures gotten by wickedness; yet it means too that he wicked shall have no treasure, no fruit, but his wickedness. He treasureth up treasures, but of wickedness; as James saith, “Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days” James 5:3, that is, of the miseries that shall come upon them James 1:0. The words stand over against one... read more
