John Trapp on Micah 6:16

Verſe 16. For the ſtatutes of Omri are kept] Subeſt verbis hiſce ſarceſmus. Here the Prophet taunteth them for their Idolatry: and telleth them plainely what will be the iſſue of it. q. d.

Ther's no command of the morall law but they can diſpenſe with it: but none of their ceremoniall lawes. Let God (ſay they, profanely) look to the breach of his own law; we will look to ours.

that I ſhould make thee a deſolations] Luther here obſerveth, that oppreſſion and other violations of the ſecond table, God uſually puniſheth with war, famine, and peſtilence: but breaches of the firſt table, and eſpecially idolatry, with utter deſolation. This is a land-deſtroying ſin Ier. 22.7, 8, 9.

therefore ye ſhal beare the reproach of my people] that is, of ſuch as had been my people, if you could have held you ſo; but you are now, loammi, diſpriviledged. Or, that which I threatened in the law long ſince to bring upon you, if ye carried not your ſelves as my people; or that which you deſerved for having profaned the name and title of being my people Ezek. 36.20, 23.
