micah 5:14 "I will root out your Asherim from among you And destroy your cities.

< Micah 5:13
Micah 5:15 >

      14. groves . . . cities--The "groves" are the idolatrous symbol of Astarte (De 16:21; 2Ki 21:7). "Cities" being parallel to "groves," must mean cities in or near which such idolatrous groves existed. Compare "city of the house of Baal" (2Ki 10:25), that is, a portion of the city sacred to Baal.
