Micah 3:9

Micah 3:9

Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and
princes of the house of Israel
As an instance of his boldness, courage, and impartiality, he begins with the principal men of the land, and charges them with sins, and reproves for them, and denounces judgments on account of them; (See Gill on Micah 3:1); that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity;
a sad character of princes, rulers, and judges, who not only ought to know but to love judgment, justice, and equity, and do them; even take delight and pleasure in the distribution of them to everyone, and in every cause that came before them; but, instead of this, hated to do that which was right and just; and perverted all the rules and laws of justice and equity, clearing the guilty, and condemning the innocent.
