Micah prophesied to both Israel and Judah as the Assyrian threat loomed, denouncing the corruption of prophets, priests, judges and merchants. Yet his book ends in hope, with a remnant gathered and a ruler born in Bethlehem.
Its 7 chapters and 105 verses contain one of the most-quoted lines in all of Scripture — "he hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" (Micah 6:8) — alongside the famous prophecy, "out of Bethlehem Ephratah... shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel" (Micah 5:2). The book also gives the defiant confession, "rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise" (Micah 7:8), and the closing wonder, "who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity?" (Micah 7:18).
