SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:13

Levántate y trilla, hija de Sion, porque tu cuerno tornaré de hierro, y tus uñas de bronce, y desmenuzarás a muchos pueblos; y consagrarás al SEÑOR sus despojos, y sus riquezas al Señor de toda la tierra.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Micah 4:13

Verse 13. Arise and thresh, O
daughter of Zion] This refers to the subject of the preceding verse. When God shall have gathered together all thy enemies, as into the threshing- floor, he will give thee commission and power to get a complete victory over them, and reduce them to servitude.

And that thou mayest be able to do this, he will be on thy side as a powerful helper; here signified by the metaphors, iron horns, and brazen hoofs. Thou shalt have power, authority, and unconquerable strength; for thine enemies shall be no more against thee than the corn against oxen shod with brass, or a puny animal against the horn of a fierce bull tipped with iron.

I will consecrate their gain unto the Lord] What they have taken from thee in the way of spoil shall be restored; and again consecrated unto the service of him who will show himself to be the Lord, the Supreme Governor of the whole earth. Was not this prediction fulfilled when Cyrus gave the Jews permission to return to their own land, and gave them back the sacred vessels of the temple which Nebuchadnezzar had carried away? The Maccabees and their successors recovered much of the booty of which the neighbouring nations had deprived the Jews; and the treasure taken was devoted to Jehovah. The first verse of the next chapter should conclude this.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 13. Arise, and thresh, O daughter of Zion , etc.] The nations gathered against her, and now laid together on the floor as sheaves to be threshed.

Here the people of God are aroused, and called out of a low and weak estate, and are animated and encouraged to exert themselves, and fall upon their enemies, and destroy them; alluding to the threshing of grain on the floor, the metaphor being here carried on from ( Micah 4:12). The Targum is, “arise, and kill, O congregation of Zion;” for I will make thine horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass ; signifying that the Lord would give them strength sufficient to such work, and such power their enemies should not be able to resist and overcome; and that they should into their hands, and be crushed, trod, and trampled on by them, and utterly subdued. The allusion is to oxen that have horns and hoofs; and it suggests that they should be as strong as they; have horns like them, that is, power to push down their enemies and hoofs to trample upon them: or as these creatures have a horny substance on their feet, or hoofs, which are strong, and fit for the purposes of treading out corn, for which they were used in the eastern countries, drawing after them iron wheels, or planks stuck with flints; so horses and oxen that have strong feet, and hard hoofs, are said to have feet of brass f146 ; thus the Lord’s people should have such courage, force, and power, as not only to withstand their enemies, but to obtain a conquest over them The Targum is, “I will make the people in them strong as iron, and their remnant firm as brass;” which was true of, and accomplished in, Judas Maccabeus and his brethren; and will be more clearly fulfilled in the Christian kings and princes in the latter day, when engaged with the antichristian states; and thou shalt beat in pieces many people ; as the Maccabees did subdue many people and nations, as all Palestine, Moab, Idumea, Samaria, and Iturea, as Josephus relates; and as the Christian princes will beat in pieces, and utterly destroy, all the antichristian kings of the earth, their states and kingdoms, and bring them into subjection to them: and I will consecrate their gain unto the Lord, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth ; that is, to Christ, who in the last day will appear to be King and Lord of the whole earth; and all the riches of the antichristian nations, Pagan, Papal, and Mahometan, will be devolved to, and employed in, his interest and service; (see Revelation 21:24); these are the words of God the Father, with respect to his Son Jesus Christ; who will now have a dominion, glory, and kingdom given him, by the ancient of days, that so all people, nations, and languages, shall serve him, ( Daniel 7:14); of which there might be some type and shadow in the times of the Maccabees.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 9-13 - Many nations would assemble against Zion to rejoice in her calamities They would not understand that the Lord had collected them as sheave are gathered to be threshed; and that Zion would be strengthened to beat them to pieces. Nothing has yet taken place in the history of the Jewish church agreeing with this prediction. When God has conquerin work for his people to do, he will furnish them with strength an ability for it. Believers should cry aloud under distresses, with the prayer of faith, not with despondency __________________________________________________________________
