Pemikiran Yahudi Mikha 4:11: Guide for the Perplexed

וְעַתָּ֛ה נֶאֶסְפ֥וּ עָלַ֖יִךְ גּוֹיִ֣ם רַבִּ֑ים הָאֹמְרִ֣ים תֶּחֱנָ֔ף וְתַ֥חַז בְּצִיּ֖וֹן עֵינֵֽינוּ׃

Sekarang banyak bangsa telah berkumpul melawan engkau, yang berkata: “Biarlah ia dinyatakan bersalah, dan biarlah mata kita memandang Sion dengan puas.”

Guide for the Perplexed

The same explanation applies to ḥazah. It denotes to view with the eye, as: “And let our eye look (ve-taḥaz) upon Zion” (Mic. 4:11); and also figuratively, to perceive mentally: “which he saw (ḥazah) concerning Judah and Jerusalem” (Isa. 1:1); “The word of the Lord came unto Abraham in a vision” (maḥazeh) (Gen. 15:1); in this sense ḥazah is used in the phrase, “Also they saw (va-yeḥezu) God” (Exod. 24:11). Note this well.
