Micah 6:14
_ _ eat ... not be satisfied — fulfilling the threat, Leviticus 26:26.
_ _ thy casting down shall be in the midst of thee — Thou shalt be cast down, not merely on My borders, but in the midst of thee, thy metropolis and temple being overthrown [Tirinus]. Even though there should be no enemy, yet thou shalt be consumed with intestine evils [Calvin]. Maurer translates as from an Arabic root, “there shall be emptiness in thy belly.” Similarly Grotius, “there shall be a sinking of thy belly (once filled with food), through hunger.” This suits the parallelism to the first clause. But English Version maintains the parallelism sufficiently. The casting down in the midst of the land, including the failure of food, through the invasion thus answering to, “Thou shalt eat, and not be satisfied.”
_ _ thou shalt take hold, but ... not deliver — Thou shalt take hold (with thine arms), in order to save [Calvin] thy wives, children and goods. Maurer, from a different root, translates, “thou shalt remove them,” in order to save them from the foe. But thou shalt fail in the attempt to deliver them (Jeremiah 50:37).
_ _ that which thou deliverest — If haply thou dost rescue aught, it will be for a time: I will give it up to the foe’s sword. |
Micah 6:14
In the midst of thee — Thou shalt be cast down at home by thy own hands. Thou shalt take hold — This may refer either to persons or things, on which we lay hold in order to save them. Shalt not deliver — Where thou lodgest thy children, and layest up thy wealth, thither the enemy shall pursue thee; or if thou fly into other countries, it shall not be a safe refuge to thee. Which thou deliverest — For a little while. |
Micah 6:14
Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and (k) thy casting down [shall be] in the midst of thee; and thou (l) shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver; and [that] which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.
(k) You will be consumed with inward grief and evils.
(l) Meaning that the city would go about to save her men, as they that lay hold of that which they would preserve. |
