What Does Micah 7:12 Mean?
The vision widens to a great homecoming. In that day people will come from every direction, from Assyria and the fortified cities, from the river to the sea, from mountain to mountain. The scattered are gathered back from the ends of the known world.
After exile and loss, God draws His people home from everywhere they have been driven. The sweep of the geography, sea to sea and mountain to mountain, hints at a gathering that knows no limits. It anticipates the day when God's people are drawn from every land, a foretaste of the gospel that calls the nations home to Him.
