Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible
Book: Malachi
Chapters: 1 ·

Malachi was the last of the prophets, and is supposed to have
prophesied B.C. 420. He reproves the priests and the people for
the evil practices into which they had fallen, and invites them
to
Repentance and reformation, with promises of the blessings to
be bestowed at the coming of the
Messiah. And now that
Prophecy
was to cease, he speaks clearly of the
Messiah, as nigh at
Hand,
and directs the people of
God to keep in remembrance the
Law of
Moses, while they were in expectation of the
Gospel of
Christ.
