Объяснение для детей

Imagine you have a really big boo-boo that won't get better no matter what you do. Now think of this boo-boo getting bigger and spreading all over your house. That’s like what Micah is saying about Jerusalem – there’s a huge problem that can’t be fixed, and it’s right at their front door.

Micah wrote this prophecy in the late 8th century BCE during Judah's troubled times when Assyria was threatening to invade. The audience would have been the citizens of Judah who were facing imminent danger from foreign powers.
