Micah 1:14-16 |
|
KJV 14 Therefore shalt thou give presents to Moreshethgath: the |
|
houses of Achzib shall be a lie to the kings of Israel. 15 Yet |
|
will I bring an heir unto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah: he |
|
shall come unto Adullam the glory of Israel. 16 Make thee bald, |
|
and poll thee for thy delicate children; enlarge thy baldness as |
|
the eagle; for they are gone into captivity from thee. |
|
WEB 14 Therefore you will give a parting gift to Moresheth Gath. |
|
The houses of Achzib will be a deceitful thing to the kings of |
|
Israel. 15 I will yet bring to you, inhabitant of Mareshah, him |
|
who will possess you. He who is the glory of Israel will come to |
|
Adullam. 16 Shave your heads, and cut off your hair for the |
|
children of your delight. Enlarge your baldness like the |
|
vulture; for they have gone into captivity from you! |
|
These are my thoughts, please share yours. |
|
14 They are being warned that these gifts that will be given |
|
aren�t true but under deceit and not under friendship but the |
|
start of their downfall. Parting gifts can be a good thing but |
|
true friends would miss their friend and only take the parting |
|
gift as a reminder of them. |
|
15 God was going to bring people in to take them. When we don�t |
|
follow the Lord something else will be brought to posses us. We |
|
don�t need to let God�s glory pass us but we need to shine His |
|
glory to the world. |
|
16 Shaven heads were a sign of shame. They needed to be shamed |
|
for their sins. Sin is to b shameful and not embraced. They were |
|
being proud in their sins, are we? |
