TSNTyndale Study Notes:

1:8-16 In response to the Lord’s predicted judgment, Micah walked around barefoot and naked to express mourning (cp. Isa 20:2; Lam 2:10; Ezek 24:17), vividly depicting what would happen to Samaria (Israel) and Jerusalem (Judah). They would be stripped of their wealth, power, and population.
• A jackal and an owl make forlorn sounds and live in forsaken wilderness areas (Isa 34:13; Jer 50:39).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

General Information:

Micah 1:8–16 is about God’s judgment on Judah.

(Some words not found in UHB: on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in this(f) lament and,wail go barefoot and,naked make lamentation like_the,jackals and,mourning like,daughters_of owl )

“Lament” refers to the inner feeling of sadness, and “wail” refers to the activity of making a loud, sad sound.

(Some words not found in UHB: on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in this(f) lament and,wail go barefoot and,naked make lamentation like_the,jackals and,mourning like,daughters_of owl )

This is a sign of extreme mourning and distress. Another possible meaning is “I will look like someone has taken off my clothes; I will be naked”

(Some words not found in UHB: on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in this(f) lament and,wail go barefoot and,naked make lamentation like_the,jackals and,mourning like,daughters_of owl )

Jackals and owls live in wastelands, and their loud cries sound like people wailing or weeping.
