<< Micah 3:7 Micah 3:9 >>
Micah 3:8
I—in contrast to the false prophets (Micah 3:5, Micah 3:7).
full of power—that which "the Spirit of Jehovah" imparts for the discharge of the prophetical function (Luke 1:17; Luke 24:49; Acts 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 (II Timothy 1:7).
to declare unto Jacob his . . . sin— (Isaiah 58:1). Not to flatter the sinner as the false prophets do with promises of peace.
