Take a Listening Tour of Scripture sometime...I noticed that Listening to a chapter or book helps "hear" things you didn't "see" when reading it...it's best to listen when dozing off at night because it seems your brain processes more when Listening at rest.
CHAPTER 4
CHAPTER 4
LISTENING LINK [Time:2:04]
But thou, Beth-lehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah,
yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
Micah 5:2
“Beth-lehem” is distinguished as “Ephratah” in the land of “Judah.” It was the hometown of David and the birthplace of Jesus. The name Bethlehem means “house of bread”
The feeding is speaking of feeding on the Word of the Lord.
“The Assyrian”, Israel’s major foe in Micah’s day, is probably best understood as representative of all of Israel’s enemies, particularly those of the end times. “Nimrod”: A reference to Assyria that could possibly also include Babylon.
