Bible Question: to what exile does the Lord refer in micah1:16 and where was the exile |
Bible Answer: Israel was taken into exile by the Assyrians in 722-721 B.C. and Judah by the Babylonians in 586. Micah prophesied sometime between 750 and 686 B.C. during the reigns of Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah ( Micah 1:1; Isa 1:1 ; Hos.1:1 ; Jer. 26:18 ). All these prophets mentioned above were contemporaries. Micah predicted the fall of Samaria ( which is the capital of Israel, the northern kingdom ) in verse 6-7 in chapter one. Micah 1:16 he is still speaking of the exile of Israel to Assyria. |
