Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents Micah's prophetic insights into the political, social, and religious issues of 8th-century BCE Judah. Micah's words, which form the sixth book of the Hebrew Bible's twelve Minor Prophets, grapple with the power dynamics of the time, dominated by oppressive rulers, corrupt judges, and false prophets. The prophet's messages span from divine judgment on Israel and Judah's misdeeds to the promise of ultimate restoration and peace under a future, just ruler. Explored through themes of justice, compassion, humility, and the pursuit of ethical behavior, Micah's writings provide a timeless examination of the tension between divine wrath and divine grace, emphasizing the enduring significance of righteous living.
