Davidic rule in the prophecy of Micah

In the prophecy of Micah 5, the promised Davidide is depicted as a domestic ruler and not a conquering deliverer. The role of the Davidide as shepherd is stated but receives no elaboration, though by implication his chief task is to promote social justice. He is the divinely designated ruler of God’s people, but is not accorded the title ‘king’. With regard to the subjugation of the nations, Davidic prerogatives are democratized and transferred to the remnant. Although the Davidic ruler is the centrepiece of Micah’s picture of the final kingdom of God, he is not said to be responsible for the peace or deliverance to be enjoyed by God’s people. The result is that in the prophecy of Micah, Yhwh is the undisputed King and Deliverer.
