"While the biblical book of Micah is most famous for its images of peace--swords forged
into to plowshares, spears turned into pruning hooks--and its passages of prophetic
hope, the book is largely composed of prophecies of ruin. The historical Micah, who
likely lived in the late eighth century BCE, is the first recorded prophet to predict
the fateful fall of Jerusalem, and he also foretells the destruction of the regions
of Samaria and Judah, in addition to the more well-known promises of Judah's eventual
restoration. Bob Becking translates the Hebrew text anew and illuminates the book's
most important elements, including its literary features, political context, and composition
history. Drawing on ancient Near Eastern comparative evidence, archaeological notes,
and inscriptions, Becking surveys the debates surrounding the book's interpretation
and argues that it be regarded as three separate source texts: the early first chapter;
a large middle section containing a proto-apocalyptic, alternating prophetic futurology
collected and molded by a later redactor; and an added section advocating for legal
reform under Josiah."
