Summary for Mic 6:13-16: 6:13-16 ^a I will wound you! This phrase introduces all of the curses that God had promised to bring upon the disobedient and rebellious people of Israel (see Deut 28:15-68 ^b).
6:16 ^c evil King Omri ... wicked King Ahab: These kings began perhaps the most rebellious dynasty to reign in northern Israel (885–841 BC; 1 Kgs 16:23—2 Kgs 10:17 ^d), and Elijah condemned them to annihilation (2 Kgs 10:17 ^e). No northern kings of Israel followed the laws of Moses (cp. Mic 1:5-6 ^f). Omri and his son Ahab were the epitome of evil kings (e.g., 1 Kgs 18:4 ^g; 21:1-26 ^h). Omri’s dynasty was destroyed in 841 BC (2 Kgs 9:14–10:17 ⁱ), and the people of Israel who followed their evil example would similarly be destroyed.
