Micah 3:8

8. I—in contrast to the false prophets (Mic 3:5, 7).

full of power—that which "the Spirit of Jehovah" imparts for the discharge of the prophetical function (Lu 1:17; 24:49; Ac 1:8).

judgment—a sense of justice [MAURER]; as opposed to the false prophets' speaking to please men, not from a regard to truth. Or, "judgment" to discern between graver and lighter offenses, and to denounce punishments accordingly [GROTIUS].

might—moral intrepidity in speaking the truth at all costs (2Ti 1:7).

to declare unto Jacob his . . . sin— (Isa 58:1). Not to flatter the sinner as the false prophets do with promises of peace.
