Micah 3:12

Micah: Micah 1:1

Zion: Josephus relates that Titus, after he had taken Jerusalem, ordered his soldiers to demolish it, except three of the largest and most beautiful towers, and the western wall of the city; all the rest was levelled, so that they who had never before seen it, could scarcely persuade themselves it had been inhabited. The Jewish writers also inform us, that Turnus Rufus, whom Titus had left in command, ploughed up the very foundations of the temple. When Dr. Richardson visited this sacred spot in 1818, he found one part of Mount Zion supporting a crop of barley, and another undergoing the labour of the plough: the soil turned up consisted of stone and lime mixed with earth, such as is usually met with in foundations of ruined cities. It is nearly a mile in circumference; is highest on the west side, and, towards the east, falls down in broad terraces on the upper part of the mountain as it slopes down toward the brook Kidron.

Jerusalem: See note on Jeremiah 9:11, Jeremiah 51:37, 2 Kings 19:25, Nehemiah 4:2, Psalms 79:1

the mountain: Jeremiah 17:3, Isaiah 2:2, Isaiah 2:3, Micah 4:1, Zechariah 8:3

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 9:7 - this house 2 Kings 20:14 - What said 1 Chronicles 21:15 - unto Jerusalem 2 Chronicles 32:26 - Hezekiah Job 15:28 - which are ready Psalms 137:3 - wasted us Isaiah 3:8 - Jerusalem Isaiah 27:10 - the defenced Jeremiah 7:14 - as Jeremiah 22:6 - surely Jeremiah 39:16 - Behold Lamentations 2:7 - cast off Daniel 9:2 - the desolations Hosea 2:12 - I will Micah 6:9 - Lord's Haggai 1:4 - and Matthew 24:2 - There Mark 13:2 - there Mark 14:57 - and bare Luke 21:6 - there Acts 6:14 - that

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Micah the Morasthite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah,.... Or, Micah of Maresha, as the Targum. Mareshah was a city of the tribe of Judah, Joshua 15:44; the native place, of this prophet; who appears, by the following quotation, to be the same Micah that stands among the minor prophets; and who is also so called, and lived in the times of Hezekiah, Micah 1:1;

and spake to all the people of Judah; very openly and publicly, and just as Jeremiah had done, Jeremiah 26:2;

saying, thus saith the Lord of hosts, Zion shall be ploughed [like] a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps; Mount Zion, on part of which the temple was built, and on the other the city of David, together with the city of Jerusalem, should be so demolished, as that they might be ploughed, and become a tillage; as the Jews say they were by Terentius, or Turnus Rufus, as they call him, after their last destruction by the Romans:

and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest; covered with grass and shrubs, and thorns and briers; even Mount Moriah, on which the temple stood, which is designed by the house; and so the Targum calls it the house of the sanctuary. Now this was saying as much against the city and temple as Jeremiah did; and was said in the days of a good king too, who encouraged a reformation, and carried it to a great pitch. See Micah 3:12.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 26:18. Micah the Morasthite — The same as stands among the prophets. Now all these prophesied as hard things against the land as Jeremiah has done; yet they were not put to death, for the people saw that they were sent of God.
