The Hebrew word for "thresh" (דּוּשׁ, dush) refers to the agricultural process of separating grain from chaff, a metaphor for judgment and purification. Historically, threshing was a vigorous activity, requiring strength and determination, symbolizing the divine empowerment of God's people to overcome their adversaries. This call to "rise" signifies awakening and readiness, urging the faithful to prepare for God's deliverance and justice.O Daughter of Zion "Daughter of Zion" is a poetic term for Jerusalem and its inhabitants, representing the covenant community of Israel. In the Hebrew Bible, "Zion" often refers to the city of David, the spiritual and political center of the Jewish people. This phrase emphasizes the intimate relationship between God and His chosen people, portraying them as a cherished daughter under His protection and guidance. It reflects God's promise to restore and elevate His people despite their current struggles.for I will give you horns of iron The "horns of iron" symbolize strength and invincibility. In ancient Near Eastern culture, horns were often associated with power and dominance, as seen in the imagery of strong animals like bulls. The use of "iron" further emphasizes unbreakable strength and divine empowerment. This metaphor indicates that God will equip His people with the necessary might to overcome their enemies, ensuring victory through His provision.and hooves of bronze "Hooves of bronze" continue the imagery of strength and durability. Bronze, an alloy of copper and tin, was known for its resilience and was used in ancient weaponry and armor. The mention of "hooves" suggests a readiness to trample and conquer, reinforcing the idea of divine empowerment for victory. This imagery assures the people of Zion that they will be equipped to carry out God's judgment and fulfill His purposes.so you may crush many peoples The phrase "so you may crush many peoples" indicates the extent of the victory that God promises to His people. The Hebrew verb for "crush" (רָצַץ, ratsats) conveys the idea of breaking or shattering, signifying total defeat of the adversaries. This prophetic assurance highlights God's sovereignty and the ultimate triumph of His justice over the nations that oppose His will.Then you will devote their gain to the LORD The act of devoting "their gain to the LORD" reflects the principle of dedicating the spoils of victory to God as an act of worship and acknowledgment of His provision. In the Hebrew context, this devotion (חֵרֶם, cherem) often involved setting apart something as holy to the Lord. This phrase underscores the idea that all victories and blessings are ultimately for God's glory and should be consecrated to Him.their wealth to the Lord of all the earth The phrase "the Lord of all the earth" emphasizes God's universal sovereignty and authority over all creation. By dedicating "their wealth" to God, the people of Zion recognize His dominion and the rightful ownership of all things. This acknowledgment serves as a reminder of God's ultimate control and the fulfillment of His promises, encouraging believers to trust in His plan and purpose for their lives.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/micah/4.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(13) Arise and thresh.--Micah, having likened Israel to the sheaves safely gathered, pursues the metaphor by calling upon the daughter of Zion to thresh her enemies after the manner of oxen treading out the corn; and under the symbolism of the horn--the weapon of strength--he promises that God will strengthen her for the workI will consecrate.--The better reading is that of the LXX., Vulg., and some ancient versions, which give the second person, Thou shalt consecrate their gain unto the Lord. The termination, indicating the first person in our Hebrew Version, may be a form of the old second person feminine, of which there are other examples.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/micah/4.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verse 13. - Arise.

Israel shall crush all the nations that rise up against her. I (God) will consecrate. So the Masoretic text; but the second person, which the ancient versions give, is preferable. Septuagint, ἀναθήσεις, "thou shalt dedicate;" Vulgate, interficies. Thou, Zion, shalt devote their gain unto the Lord. This consecration, or devotion, to the Lord in the case of living things involved death, the restitution to the Lord of the life which he had given (see <a href="/leviticus/27-21.htm">Leviticus 27:21, 28, 29</a>; <a href="/zechariah/14-21.htm">Zechariah 14:21</a>).
