Jamieson Fausset Brown Commentary - Micah 3:8 - 3:8


(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

I - in contrast to the false prophets (Mic 3:5, Mic 3:7).

full of power - that which “the Spirit of Jehovah” imparts for the discharge of the prophetical function (Luk 1:17; Luk 24:49; Act 1:8).

judgment - a sense of justice [Maurer]; as opposed to the false prophets’ speaking to please men, not from a regard to truth. Or, “judgment” to discern between graver and lighter offenses, and to denounce punishments accordingly [Grotius].

might - moral intrepidity in speaking the truth at all costs (2Ti 1:7).

to declare unto Jacob his ... sin - (Isa 58:1). Not to flatter the sinner as the false prophets do with promises of peace.
