Barnes' Notes
The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel - o "The word of the Lord is heavy, because it is called a burden, yet it hath something of consolation, because it is not ' against,' but to Israel. For it is one thing when we write to this or that person; another, when we write ' against' this or that person; the one being the part of friendship, the other, the open admission of enmity."
"By the hand of Malachi;" through him, as the instrument of God, deposited with him; as Paul speaks of I Corinthians 9:17; Titus 1:3, "the dispensation of the Gospel II Corinthians 5:19, the Lord of reconciliation; Galatians 2:7, the Gospel of the uncircumcision, being committed to him."
