Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Micah 7:1-20

Chapter 7The prophet said,Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grape gleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat: my soul desires the first ripe fruit ( Micah 7:1 ).I'm desolate. I really don't have anything.The good man is perished out of the earth: and there is no upright men left: they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net. That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the prince asked, and the judges take bribes... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Micah 7:1-20

Micah 7:1 . I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits. “I am become as the gatherers of late figs, as the gleaners of the vintage.” NEWCOME. Micah 7:8 . Rejoice not against me, oh mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise. The prophet here anticipates the language of the church in captivity. Zion would have a fall, and for a time would sit in darkness. Babylon would cast her down, and shut her up as it were in prison, bound in affliction and iron. Psalms 107:10-12. In this... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Micah 7:18

Micah 7:18Who is a God like unto Thee, that pardoneth iniquity?The grace of God to sinnersMicah and Isaiah were contemporaries. They lived in the same land, they lived in the same city; they ministered, we may say, to the same congregation, and they preached the same Gospel. They were very unlike in some respects, so far as we can judge from the remnants of their ministry they have left behind them. Isaiah was, perhaps, the most eloquent man that God ever made, and He made him for the most... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Micah 7:18

Mic 7:18 Who [is] a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth [in] mercy. Ver. 18. Who is a God like unto thee? ] No God surely (whether so reputed or deputed; whether heathen deities, heavenly angels, or earthly rulers) can compare with our God, or come near him, for pardoning of sin. Indeed, none can do it at all but he; as the blind Pharisees saw and could say. Men... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Micah 7:18-20

A DOXOLOGY, Micah 7:18-20. Reveling in the thought of a glorious future, the prophet ascribes all honor and praise to Jehovah, who alone is God. Who is a God like unto thee The question may contain a play upon the name Micah, which means Who is like Jehovah? If Micah 7:7-20, does not come from the prophet Micah (see p. 368), does this play explain why the verses were embodied in the Book of Micah? To the author Jehovah is supreme; and of all the divine attributes Jehovah’s compassion and... read more
