The Book of Micah

Approximately the time period of 2nd Kings 15 – 20

735 – 700 BC

 

Micah prophesied judgment and impending doom for Israel and Judah in the first three chapters. However, Chapters 4 and 5 offer comfort and assurance that God’s house will be established, and a remnant will return to Zion. In Chapters 6 and 7, we learn about salvation through the analogy of a lawsuit and true worship. Micah reminds us to have faith in the Lord, who alone can show compassion and provide hope.
