Micah 7:13

Micah 7:13

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

Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate. Very many commentators consider the land of Canaan to be here intended, the prophet recurring to threatenings of judgment before the great restoration comes to pass; but it is best to regard the clause as referring to all the world, exclusive of Canaan.

While the Messianic kingdom is set up, judgment shall fail upon the sinful world. "For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted" (; comp.

). And the material world shall suffer with its inhabitants (, ; ; ; , etc.). Their doings. Their evil deeds, especially the rejection of Messiah.
