Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Micah 2:12
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
12. A sudden transition from threats to the promise of a glorious restoration. Compare a similar transition in Hosea 1:9 ; Hosea 1:10 . Jehovah, too, prophesies of good things to come, but not like the false prophets, "of wine and strong drink" ( Hosea 1:10- : ). After I have sent you into captivity as I have just threatened, I will thence assemble you again (compare Micah 4:6 ; Micah 4:7 ). all of thee —The restoration from Babylon was partial. Therefore that here meant must be still future, when " all Israel shall be saved" ( Romans 11:26 ). The restoration from "Babylon" (specified ( Romans 11:26- : ) is the type of the future one. Jacob . . . Israel —the ten tribes' kingdom ( Hosea 12:2 ) and Judah ( 2 Chronicles 19:8 ; 2 Chronicles 21:2 ; 2 Chronicles 21:4 ). remnant —the elect remnant, which shall survive the previous calamities of Judah, and from which the nation is to spring into new life ( Isaiah 6:13 ; Isaiah 10:20-22 ). as the sheep of Bozrah —a region famed for its rich pastures (compare Isaiah 10:20-23.10.22- : ). GESENIUS for Bozrah translates, "sheepfold." But thus there will be tautology unless the next clause be translated, "in the midst of their pasture. " English Version is more favored by the Hebrew. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-13" class="com-number"
