Micah: With Notes and Introduction (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the writings of Micah, believed to be the youngest of the group of prophets who filled the period between Uzziah and Hezekiah. Micah's writings are thought to belong between 759 and 679 BC, though some argue for a date closer to the reign of Hezekiah, after 686 BC. He is described as the Morasthite, suggesting he originated from a relatively insignificant rural town, giving weight to his recoil against the society of the capital. He attacks the leaders of Judah and Samaria with a unique ethical fervour, leading some commentators to suggest he was a man of radical change and inner turmoil. Micah is seen as a key figure in a line of thoughtful, poetic, and insightful prophets who attempted to rouse Israel to moral and ethical action. He is often compared to Isaiah and Amos for his prophetic style marked by gnomic utterances and rhetorical questions. The book presents a pessimistic overview of the nation's prospects, as Micah predicts the destruction of Samaria and Jerusalem and the deportation of the nation, but he also prophesies a restoration of the people and nation, in the style of his era. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the life and work of Micah, who, like his contemporaries, attempted to rouse Israel to the potential of ethical religious practice through their writings and is an essential read for anyone interested in the study of the Hebrew Bible.
