Matthew Poole and continuators on Micah 1:9

9 For her wound is incurable , for it is come unto Judah : he is come unto the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem .

The Wounds of Samaria, and the Ten Tribes her own sins, God's just displeasure, and the Enemies rage have deeply wounded her, she is sensless, impenitent, and furious against her Physitian, and she shall at last dy by Sword, Famine. Pestilence, and Captivity.

The contagion of her sins, and the indignation of God against it, and the Enemies successes, viz. Senna[illegible: 4 letters]b's, or Nebuchadnezza[illegible: 1 letter] 's like a flood have reached to Iudah also, and this is reason why the Prophet foretels such mourning, and is willing to personate it to awaken both Kingdoms to repent, and turn to God

The insulting, conquering, and cruel Enemy, or in the [illegible: 3 letters]nter Gender it i. e. the evil is come, i. e. in the Prophetick [illegible: 1 word] will certainly and suddenly come.

Either signifying the Assyrians besieging Ierusalem, as Sennacherib Son of Salmaneser did some few years after the sack of Samaria, or else by Gate of my people is meant the City where the Sovereign Court of Judicature to the whole Kingdom is, denoting the Victories of the Assyrian over the rest of the Kingdom of Iudah, or else the Victories of Nebuchadnezzar.

This seems added to explain the former phrase.
