Commentary

Commentary on Micah 2:3

Theological / Devotional

Do I devise. Sin had brought about a disregard for family relationships. God would bring judgment “against this family” of the whole nation. As they devised iniquity so God would “devise an evil.”

Remove your necks. Their chastisement would be as a heavy, galling yoke, which they would not be able to throw off.

Go haughtily. That is, with uplifted head. The pride of the oppressors would be humbled.

Is evil. Or, “will be evil.” The prophet is speaking of the future judgment God will bring upon His people.
