Verse 15
"I will yet bring unto thee, O inhabitant of Moreshah, him that shall possess thee: the glory of Israel shall come even unto Abdullum."
"I will bring unto thee ..." This meant that God would bring the conqueror to Moresheh, another of the numerous towns which were in this passage objects of Micah's prophecy.
"The glory of Israel shall come even unto Abdullum ..." Abdullum was a name associated with the days of the distress of king David, in the times when, "David was an outlaw in hiding (in the cave of Abdullum) to save his life from king Saul, and when his army was a ragtag company of malcontents (1 Samuel 22:1f)."[39] Of course, Israel was fond of glorying in the days of David's greatness and glory; but here the prophet was saying, "It's back to the cave of Abdullum for Israel's glory!" "Abdullum was noted for its caves."[40]
