14 And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee: so will I destroy thy cities.
14 and I will root out your Asherah images from among you and destroy your cities.
14 I'll root out your sacred sex-and-power centers and destroy the God-defiant.
14 I will pluck your wooden images from your midst; Thus I will destroy your cities.
14 I will abolish your idol shrines with their Asherah poles and destroy your pagan cities.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Micah 5:14
Commentary on Micah 5:7-15
(Read Micah 5:7-15)
The remnant of Israel, converted to Christ in the primitive times, were among many nations as the drops of dew, and were made instruments in calling a large increase of spiritual worshippers. But to those who neglected or opposed this salvation, they would, as lions, cause terror, their doctrine condemning them. The Lord also declares that he would cause not only the reformation of the Jews, but the purification of the Christian church. In like manner shall we be assured of victory in our personal conflicts, as we simply depend upon the Lord our salvation, worship him, and serve him with diligence.
