Micah 1 - Introduction

The judgment upon Samaria and the land of Judah; and the prophet's lament. The historical fulfilment of the prophecy is in the capture of Samaria by Sargon in 722 and that same king's invasion of Judah in 711 (see note A). Compare the topographical allusions in Micah 1:10-15 with the corresponding section in Isaiah 10:28-32.
