In the eighth century B.C.E., when Micah prophesied, God’s covenant people were divided into two nations ​ — Israel and Judah — ​ and both were ignoring God’s covenant.
Pada abad kedelapan SM, masa sewaktu Mikha bernubuat, umat perjanjian Allah terbagi menjadi dua bangsa ​ — Israel dan Yehuda ​ — dan kedua - duanya mengabaikan perjanjian Allah.
