Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Micah 2:13

_ _ The breaker — Jehovah-Messiah, who breaks through every obstacle in the way of their restoration: not as formerly breaking forth to destroy them for transgression (Exodus 19:22; Judges 21:15), but breaking a way for them through their enemies.

_ _ they — the returning Israelites and Jews.

_ _ passed through the gate — that is, through the gate of the foe’s city in which they had been captives. So the image of the resurrection (Hosea 13:14) represents Israel’s restoration.

_ _ their king — “the Breaker,” peculiarly “their king” (Hosea 3:5; Matthew 27:37).

_ _ pass before them — as He did when they went up out of Egypt (Exodus 13:21; Deuteronomy 1:30, Deuteronomy 1:33).

_ _ the Lord on the head of them — Jehovah at their head (Isaiah 52:12). Messiah, the second person, is meant (compare Exodus 23:20; Exodus 33:14; Isaiah 63:9).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Micah 2:12-13.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Micah 2:13

The breaker — To break down all opposition. The gate — The door of escape out of their captivity. No cities so strong, which the Assyrians shall not take and possess, and enter in through the gates. The Lord — Even Jehovah, as he was at the head of Israel, when he brought them out of Egypt.
