Adam Clarke, on Mic 6:1
Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
Mic 6:1 · Douay-Rheims
“Hear ye what the Lord saith: Arise, contend thou in judgment against the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.”
On this verse:
“Arise, contend thou - This chapter is a sort of dialogue between God and the people. God speaks the five first verses, and convicts the people of sin, righteousness, and judgment. The People, convinced of their iniquity, deprecate God's judgments, in the sixth and seventh verses. In the eighth verse God prescribes the way in which they are to be saved; and then the prophet, by the command of God, goes on to remonstrate from the ninth verse to the end of the chapter.”
