About Micah
Micah, a contemporary of Isaiah, addresses both kingdoms and reserves his sharpest words for leaders, priests and prophets who profit from their office. Alongside the warnings sit striking promises, including the naming of Bethlehem as the birthplace of a ruler. The book is best known for its compressed answer to what God wants: to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with him.
