Micah 6:3

Micah 6:3

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

O my people. The controversy takes the form of a loving expostulation; and thus in his wonderful condescension Jehovah opens the suit. What have I done unto thee? What has occasioned thy fall from me?

Hast thou aught to accuse me of, that thou art wearied of me? Have my requirements been too hard, or have I not kept my promises to thee (comp. , etc.; )? Testify. A judicial term; make a formal defence or reply to judicial interrogatories; depose () (Pusey).
