Micah 2 Commentary

Please choose a passage

Micah 2:1-5 meaning

Micah describes the sins of wealthy people who constantly scheme new ways to cheat their fellow Judeans in order to enrich themselves.

Micah declared an oracle of judgment against false prophets whose teaching justified the seizing of other people’s land by wealthy land barons.

After declaring the LORD’s judgment upon His unfaithful people, He then promised to bring them positive blessing and to gather His people again.


The second chapter of Micah contains the continuation of the first oracle in the book. It describes the sins of the people worthy of the LORD's judgment. It ends with a word of hope for a remnant.

Micah 2 can be outlined as follows:

  • Sins of Judah (2:1 – 11)
    • Sins of the Wealthy (2:1 – 5)
    • Sins of the False Prophets and the Greedy (2:6 – 11)
  • A Word of Hope (2:12 – 13)
