" the prophets alerted us to practices that God says conflict with his righteous standards and can ruin our lives, such as “loose conduct” and the “spirit of fornication.” (Hosea 4:12; 6:9) God detests those who deal treacherously with a mate or, by extension, other family members. (Malachi 2:15, 16) Jehovah inspired the prophets to emphasize that he takes no pleasure in violence, whatever its form. ( Amos 3:10) He likewise had them highlight the need to avoid injustice or dishonesty in business and financial dealings. (Amos 5:24; Malachi 3:5) And the 12 books stressed how important it is that men entrusted with authority not allow their judgment to be clouded by partiality or selfish interests.— Micah 7:3, 4" - jd14 184 par 14

[Admin]

In the days of the prophet Malachi, many Jewish husbands dealt treacherously with their wives by divorcing them, using all kinds of excuses. Such men thus rid themselves of the wives of their youth, perhaps to marry younger women or even pagan women. Jewish men were still treacherously divorcing their wives “on every sort of grounds” when Jesus was on earth. (Matt. 19:3) Jehovah God hated such divorcing.—Read Malachi 2:13-16."- w16 8/15 p 15 par. 12w16 8/15 p12 par 13

Let your conduct speak for you. Often, what we do makes a bigger impression on our relatives than what we say. (Read 1 Peter 3:1, 2.)

“wives , be in subjection to your husbands , so that if any are not obedient to the word, they may be won without a word through the conduct of their wives, because of having been eyewitnesses of your chaste conduct together with deep respect” - 1 Peter 3:2, 3

Questions for Meditation

<< Injustice [7th century] >>

<< cl chap 11 p. 125 par 16 [Jehovah's Justice] >>

Malachi 2:13-16 How did Jehovah feel about the injustice done to women whose husbands divorced them with no proper basis?

IN CONTRAST WITH THE WORLD

What evidence do you observe that many in the world ‘drink violence’?—Proverbs 4:17; Zephaniah 1:9; Malachi 2:17

How can you apply Micah 4:3 in the congregation and in your family?

How has this chapter helped you to see that we can draw lessons from parts of the Bible that are considered less often?
