Micah exposed the corruption of business leaders, who exploited the weak. He condemns the priests and prophets for being in it only for the money. But he reserves his most scathing criticism for the hollow religious practices of his day.
“He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Familiar words. Perhaps you memorized them in Sunday School, or perhaps you saw them on the wall of the Library of Congress (they are inscribed there.)
ACT, LOVE, WALK. That’s God’s short list. They’re all action words--all verbs, and imperative verbs at that. They’re verbs that ask the questions What, How and Who. What are you DOING? How and who are you LOVING? With Whom are you WALKING?
Miqueas 6:1-8 Exégesis: ¿Se complacerá Yahweh con miles de carneros? Él te ha mostrado, oh hombre, lo que es bueno. ¿Qué exige Yahweh de ti, sino actuar justamente, amar la misericordia y caminar humildemente con tu Dios?
Miqueas 5:2-5a. Pero tú, Belén Efrata, que eres pequeño entre los clanes de Judá, de ti saldrá uno que ha de ser gobernante en Israel; Cuyas salidas son de la antigüedad, de la eternidad.
Miqueas 3:5-12. Sus líderes juzgan por sobornos, y sus sacerdotes enseñan por un precio. Por lo tanto, Sión por tu bien será arada como un campo, y Jerusalén se convertirá en montones de escombros, y la montaña del templo como los lugares altos de un bosque.
Will Yahweh be pleased with thousands of rams? He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?
