Micah 5:14
Compare all
12 I will cut off sorceries from your hand,
And you shall have no asoothsayers. 
13 aYour carved images I will also cut off,
And your sacred pillars from your midst;
You shall bno more worship the work of your hands; 
14 I will pluck your1 wooden images from your midst;
Thus I will destroy your cities. 
15 And I will aexecute vengeance in anger and fury
On the nations that have not1 heard.”

Micah 5:14

groves . . . cities—The "groves" are the idolatrous symbol of Astarte (Deuteronomy 16:21; II Kings 21:7). "Cities" being parallel to "groves," must mean cities in or near which such idolatrous groves existed. Compare "city of the house of Baal" (II Kings 10:25), that is, a portion of the city sacred to Baal.
