Feed, &c. Note here, the prayer of Micah. Supply the Ellip sis: "[Then Micah prayed, and said:. Jehovah] Feed Thy People", &c.

Feed. shepherd Thou (masc).

rod. Hebrew. shebet, as in Micah 5:1. not as in Micah 6:9. Here it is the token of rule.

which dwell, &c.. dwell thou (feminine): i.e. the "flock". Hebrew. tz'on (com. gender).

solitarily. alone. Reference to Pentateuch (Numbers 23:9; Deuteronomy 33:28). App-92.

as in the days of old. as in the age-past times: so shall be the yet future day of Israel's consolation; not Micah's day, when Israel was in possession of Bashan, &c. No ground, therefore, for dating this prayer in "the latest period of Israel's history, the days of Haggai and Zechariah", as alleged.
