James Gray - Concise Bible Commentary For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Malachi 4:4-6FOURTH DIVISION (Malachi 4:4-6) This part is a grand conclusion in which the great day of the Lord is once more referred to, and Elijah the prophet named as His forerunner. We learn from Matthew 11:14; Mark 9:11 and Luke 1:17 that John the Baptist is to be considered the type of this forerunner, but that Elijah is to come again to this earth is the opinion of many. There are those who believe that he and Moses are the two witnesses in Revelation 11 that shall do wonders in Jerusalem during the reign of the Antichrist. QUESTIONS 1. What is the peculiarity of this book? 2. Give the proof that Malachi is contemporary with Nehemiah. 3. How do you explain God’s “hatred” of Esau? 4. What argument against divorce is found here? 5. How do some interpret the prediction about Elijah? James Gray - Concise Bible Commentary Text Courtesy of BibleSupport.com. Used by Permission. Bible Hub |
