Amos explained, “And the LORD took me as I followed the flock.” Amos made it clear that he was no prophet, nor were his ancestors. He was not trained to deliver God’s Word to the people.

| Comment (1)Amos made it clear in chapters 3-6 that the reason for God’s punishment on them was their greed, their social and judicial injustice, their hypocritical worship, their economic exploitation of the poor and their self-indulgence. They broke every commandment God gave them. They broke their covenant with God by worshipping idols,...

| Comments (2)“And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die. And a man's uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is by the sides of the house, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for ...

“Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed” (Amos 6:7). “They” are the people who either didn’t believe the captivity would come, or didn’t think it would be in their lifetime. These are the people whose...

| Comment (1)“Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?” (Verse 2) Amos calls the Israelites to wake up.
