Is the House of Yaakov condemned? Is Hashem’s patience short? Is such His practice? To be sure, My words are friendly To those who walk in rectitudeMicah 2:7 (The Israel Bible™)הֶאָמוּר בֵּית־יַעֲקֹב הֲקָצַר רוּחַ יְהוָה אִם־אֵלֶּה מַעֲלָלָיו הֲלוֹא דְבָרַי יֵיטִיבוּ עִם הַיָּשָׁר הוֹלֵךְHear the verse in Hebrewhe-a-MUR bayt ya-a-KOV ha-ka-TZAR RU-akh a-do-NAI im AY-leh ma-a-la-LAV ha-LO d’-va-RAI yay-TEE-vu IM ha-ya-SHAR ho-LAYKH
Micha's Prophecy of Restoration
The Prophet Micha (Micah) explains to the People of Israel that for Hashem's (God) blessing to rest on the people, they must "walk in rectitude", and not follow the crooked path of false prophets. If the People of Israel do not heed His warning, Hashem will punish them and exile them from the Land of Israel, which cannot tolerate evil behavior. In verse 12, Micha promises that even once the People of Israel have been punished, they will eventually be returned to the Land of Israel from all the places of their exile, and placed under Hashem's protection like a flock of sheep safe in its pen.
