Commentary

Commentary on Malachi 3:16

Theological / Devotional

Feared the Lord. Malachi brings a message of hope and comfort to those who are still faithful to the Lord. What a contrast between the iniquitous complainers mentioned above (vs. 13-15) and those who are truly righteous!

A book of remembrance. The prophet encourages those who are endeavoring to do what is right with the thought that God remembers the devoted service of His people (see on Dan. 7:10).
