I am doing an exegetical assignment on Micah 6:1-8 as part of my Minor Prophet studies. I have come across an interesting fact, that apart from the story of exodus within the Torah and 2 genealogies in Chronicles; Miriam is not mentioned anywhere else within Scripture except in this passage in Micah.
In reading through the commentaries about Micah, Miriam is only mentioned as an aside being part of the original leadership of the exodus….not even noting this is an isolated event within Scripture.
I think there is something going deeper here, the question is; “What is it?”
