Nataleigh - another commentary explains it like this: The Sun of Righteousness is Jesus Christ and it is in reference to the millenial reign of Christ after the anti-christ has been done away with. In Jeremiah he references Jesus as our Righteousness and in other passages Jesus is referred to as our sunrise.
God’s desire has always been to provide righteousness to those who trust Him (e.g., Genesis 15:6). On some occasions, God’s people were said to be “clothed in righteousness” ( Job 29:14; Psalm 132:9; Isaiah 61:10), and here in Malachi 4:2 God’s people will see the Sun of Righteousness Himself rising over the world. It’s a picture of the future millennial reign of Jesus Christ. The darkness of the Antichrist’s reign will vanish, and the light of God will take its place. It’s a new day dawning; God’s people will revel in their freedom like gamboling calves leaping from their stalls ( Isaiah 65:17-25; Hosea 14:4-7; Amos 9:13-15; Zephaniah 3:19-20).
I hope this helps some. Good question though as it invokes one to research the phrase and hence we all learn from it.
