SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:1

¶ Palabra del SEÑOR que vino a Miqueas de Moreset en días de Jotam, Acaz, y Ezequías, reyes de Judá; lo que vio sobre Samaria y Jerusalén.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Micah 1:1

Verse 1. The word of the
Lord that came to Micah the Morasthite] For all authentic particulars relative to this prophet, see the preface.

In the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah] These three kings reigned about threescore years; and Micah is supposed to have prophesied about forty or fifty years; but no more of his prophecies have reached posterity than what are contained in this book, nor is there any evidence that any more was written. His time appears to have been spent chiefly in preaching and exhorting; and he was directed to write those parts only that were calculated to profit succeeding generations.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 1. The word of the Lord that came to Micah the Morasthite , etc.] So called, either from Mareshah, mentioned ( Micah 1:15); and was a city in the tribe of Judah, ( Joshua 15:44); as the Targum, Jarchi, Kimchi, and Zacutus f9 ; or rather from Moresheth, from which Moreshethgath, ( Micah 1:14); is distinguished; which Jerom says was in his time a small village in the land of Palestine, near Eleutheropolis. Some think these two cities to be one and the same; but they appear to be different from the account of Jerom elsewhere. The Arabic version reads it, Micah the son of Morathi; so Cyril, in his commentary on this place, mentions it as the sense of some, that Morathi was the father of the prophet; which can by no means be assented to: in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, [and] Hezekiah, kings of Judah ; by which it appears that he was contemporary with Isaiah, Hoses, and Amos, though they began to prophesy somewhat sooner than he, even in the days of Uzziah; very probably he conversed with these prophets, especially Isaiah, with whom he agrees in many things; his style is like his, and sometimes uses the same phrases: he, being of the tribe of Judah, only mentions the kings of that nation most known to him; though he prophesied against Israel, and in the days of Zachariah, Shallum, Menahem, Pekahiah, Pekah, and Hoshea: which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem ; in the vision of prophecy; Samaria was the metropolis of the ten tribes of Israel, and is put for them all; as Jerusalem was of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, and is put for them Samaria is mentioned first, because it was the head of the greatest body of people; and as it was the first in transgression, it was the first in punishment.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-7 - The
earth is called upon, with all that are therein, to hear the prophet. God's holy temple will not protect false professors. Neithe men of high degree, as the mountains, nor men of low degree, as the valleys, can secure themselves or the land from the judgments of God If sin be found in God's people he will not spare them; and their sin are most provoking to him, for they are most reproaching. When we fee the smart of sin, it behoves us to seek what is the sin we smart for Persons and places most exalted, are most exposed to spiritual diseases. The vices of leaders and rulers shall be surely and sorel punished. The punishment answers the sin. What they gave to idols never shall prosper, nor do them any good. What is got by one lust, i wasted on another.
