Charles Spurgeon Commentary Micah 6:16

"For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I may make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof a hissing: and ye shall bear the reproach of my people." — Micah 6:16 (ASV)

For the statutes of Omri are kept,

They would not keep the statutes of God; but they could keep the foul statutes of Omri, which appear to have been specially objectionable to God.

And all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels;

He was an arch rebel against God. Remember his murder of Naboth to get his vineyard; and these people followed his evil example.

That I should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.

It was very hard to bear that reproach, when there would be none of the comforts of the Spirit to go with it. There are some professors who bear the reproach of Christ, but will never share his crown; that is a fearful state of things. We would gladly enough take up that reproach, that we may be truly his; but if we profess to be God's people, and act inconsistently, we will bear all the reproach, but have nothing to sustain us under it. O Lord, of your mercy, save us from this!
