The Hebrew word for "compassion" is "רַחֵם" (rachem), which conveys a deep, tender love akin to that of a parent for a child. This reflects God's enduring mercy and willingness to forgive His people despite their transgressions. Historically, Israel experienced cycles of sin and redemption, and this verse reassures them of God's unwavering love and readiness to restore them.<p><b>He will vanquish our iniquities</b><br />The term "vanquish" suggests a complete and decisive victory over sin. The Hebrew root "כָּבַשׁ" (kavash) means to subdue or bring into subjection. This indicates not only forgiveness but also the power of God to overcome the sin that entangles His people. In a broader scriptural context, this points to the ultimate victory over sin through the Messiah, who conquers sin and death.<p><b>You will cast out all our sins into the depths of the sea</b><br />The imagery of casting sins into the sea signifies total removal and forgetfulness. The Hebrew word "יַשְׁלִיךְ" (yashlikh) means to throw or hurl, emphasizing the forceful and deliberate action of God in removing sin. The "depths of the sea" symbolize a place of irretrievable distance, illustrating the complete and permanent nature of God's forgiveness. This echoes other scriptural assurances, such as <a href="/psalms/103-12.htm">Psalm 103:12</a>, where sins are removed "as far as the east is from the west."<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/micah/7.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 19.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">He will turn again, and have compassion upon us.</span> The verb "turn again," joined with another verb, often denotes the repetition of an action, as in <a href="/job/7-7.htm">Job 7:7</a>; <a href="/hosea/14-8.htm">Hosea 14:8</a>, etc.; so here we may translate simply, "He will again have compassion." <span class="cmt_word">He will subdue;</span> literally, <span class="accented">tread underfoot.</span> Sin is regarded as a personal enemy, which by God's sovereign grace will be entirely subdued.
