A Paraphrastical EXPLICATION Of the PROPHESIE OF MICAH.
CHAP. I.
1. THe word of the Lord that came to Micah the Morasthite in the dayes of Iotham, Abaz and Hezekiah kings of Iu∣dah, which he saw concern∣ing Samaria and Ieru∣salem.
2 Hear all ye people, hearken, O earth, and all that therein is, and let the Lord God be witnesse a∣gainst you, the Lord from his holy temple.
3 For behold, the Lord cometh forth out of his place and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
4 And the mountaines shall be molten under him, and the valleys shall be cleft as wax before the fire and as the waters that are powred down a steep place.
5 For the transgression of Iacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the trans∣gression of Iacob? is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Iudah?
