TSNTyndale Study Notes:

4:10 Distant Babylon lay about 1,000 miles (1,700 kilometers) from Jerusalem; it could not be reached by cutting across the barren eastern desert.
• The Lord’s rescue of his people from sure death in Babylon would surpass his bringing them out of Egypt. They were formed in the womb of suffering and awaited a promising rebirth (Isa 43:1-5; cp. Ezek 37).
• For Micah, Babylon represented the concept of exile. In Micah’s time (the late 700s and early 600s BC), there was not even the whisper of a Babylonian empire replacing the Assyrians. But Micah was speaking for God, who knows the future.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) Be in pain … like a woman in labor

(Some words not found in UHB: writhe and,groan daughter_of Tsiyyōn/(Zion) like_a,woman_in_labor that/for/because/then/when now go_forth from,city and,camp in_the=field and,go until Bāⱱel there rescued there redeem,you YHWH from,hand enemies,your )

Micah compares the suffering the people will experience when enemies force them away from their cities to the pain a woman experiences when giving birth to a baby.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) There you will be rescued. There Yahweh will rescue you

(Some words not found in UHB: writhe and,groan daughter_of Tsiyyōn/(Zion) like_a,woman_in_labor that/for/because/then/when now go_forth from,city and,camp in_the=field and,go until Bāⱱel there rescued there redeem,you YHWH from,hand enemies,your )

Yahweh says the same thing in both active and passive forms to emphasize that he will do what he has said he will do. This can be translated in active form. Alternate translation: “There Yahweh will rescue you. There he will rescue you”
