Context of Micah 4:5
3And he shall judge among many peoples, and reprove strong nations, even afar off; and they shall forge their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-knives: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. 4And they shall sit every one under his vine, and under his fig-tree; and there shall be none to make [them] afraid: for the mouth of Jehovah of hosts hath spoken [it]. For all the peoples will walk every one in the name of his god; but we will walk in the name of Jehovah, our God for ever and ever. 6In that day, saith Jehovah, will I assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted; 7and I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation; and Jehovah shall reign over them in mount Zion, from henceforth even for ever.

- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 5Every one in the name of his god - This shall be the state of the Gentile world; but after the captivity, the Jews walked in the name of Jehovah alone; and acknowledge no other object of religious worship to the present day.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 5For all people well walk, every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the Lord our God - Hitherto unsteadfastness had been the very characteristic sin of Israel.

God's plan to bless all nations (Genesis 12:3) through Abraham's descendants will come true when people from all nations gather at the Lord's house to worship. There: they will learn to follow God's laws and teachings; these laws and teachings will spread among the nations as they leave God's house; peace and well-being will grow as…Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 55. For--rather, Though it be that all people walk after their several gods, yet we (the Jews in the dispersion) will walk in the name of the Lord. So the Hebrew particle means in the Margin, Ge 8:21; Ex 13:17; Jos 17:18. The resolution of the exile Jews is: As Jehovah gives us hope of so glorious a restoration, notwithstanding the overthrow of our temple and nation, we must in confident reliance on His promise persevere in the true worship of Him, however…Read the comment
