The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms # 216
216. Internal Meaning of Micah, Chapter 2
1-2 Concerning thought with the intention of doing evil, that they also do it from the will. (3)
3-5 Hence the church has become perverted. (3)
6-7 There is no longer any use to teach any except those who obey; (3, 3)
8-9 therefore they do evils of every kind. (3)
10-11 They will perish, because they cannot be taught. (3)
12-13 Such things do not invade those who will be of the Lord's new church. (3)
Micah 2:3-5
3
Therefore thus says Yahweh: "Behold, I am planning against these people a disaster, from which you will not remove your necks, neither will you walk haughtily; for it is an evil time.
4
In that day they will take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, saying, 'We are utterly ruined! My people's possession is divided up. Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors!'"
5
Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in the assembly of Yahweh.
