Week 14 - Judgment Against Judah & Samaria

Micah comes from a Hebrew word that means “Who is like the LORD?” Coming from the Judean town of Moresheth, Micah was one of four well known prophets to prophesy to Judah. He followed Obadiah, Joel, and Isaiah. Most likely his ministry overlapped Isaiah’s, and while these men are devoting their energies to God’s people in Judah, Hosea is working in the northern kingdom urging the people to repent. A best date for the ministry of Micah would be between 735 and 700 B.C.
