Description
In this masterful commentary, respected biblical scholar Bruce Waltke carefully interprets the message of the prophet Micah, building a bridge between Micah's own ancient world and our life today. Waltke's "Commentary on Micah" quickly distinguishes itself from other commentaries on this book by displaying an unprecedented exegetical thoroughness, an expert understanding of historical context, and a keen interest in illuminating the contribution of Micah to Christian theology. Tackling hard questions about date and authorship, and contending that Micah himself wrote and edited the nineteen sermons comprising his book, Waltke's commentary combines scholarly erudition with passion for Micah's contemporary relevance. Learned yet amazingly accessible, this is an ideal commentary on Micah for teachers, pastors, and students alike. Waltke's penetrating discussion of Micah's oracles of hope reveals the book's overall impact - to remind both Israel and the Christian church of the hope for the appearing of God's kingdom in human history.
