Commentary

Commentary on Micah 7:12

Theological / Devotional

He shall come. Probably “they shall come” in harmony with several manuscripts of the Septuagint.

Fortified. Hebrew masor, which may also be translated “Egypt.” Assyria and Egypt had held God’s people in captivity and in slavery.

Fortress. Hebrew masor, which may be translated “Egypt” as above.

River. The Euphrates.

Sea to sea. It is not certain which seas are meant. The expression indicates wide extent. The same is true of the expression, “from mountain to mountain.”
