Guiding Questions: Micah 1

Exploring Judaism

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

Micah in Hebrew is “Mika-Yahu” (who is like God?) — with what connotation?
How does Jeremiah 26:18 confirm the biographical data for this prophet?
Micah’s prophesies (Micah 1:1) were directed to Israel, Judea or both?
Where is “God’s place” that God is to leave — and to what end?
What is the shared transgression of Israel and Judea (Micah 1:5-6)?
Why is Shomron compared to a prostitute?
And where has Shomron’s (Israel’s) infection spread (Micah 1:9)?
And, consequently what is to become of Jerusalem (Micah 1:12)?
Why the mourning symbolism of Micah 1:16?
