  2. The Book of Amos Amos & The Setting of The Book of Amos.

  3. The Book of Amos Amos (burden) was from the town of “Tekoa” located about 12 miles south of Jerusalem. Amos was a shepherd and dresser of sycamore trees, Amos 7:14. Amos (from Judah) was called by God to go into Israel and prophesy against it, but was run out of Israel, Amos 7:10-13.

  4. Job Psalms Proverbs Ecclesiastes Song of Solomon 721 BC Hosea: Jereboam Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah 19 Kings of Israel The Book of Ezra Amos : Jereboam Uzziah, Genesis Exodus Leviticus Numbers Deuteronomy II Chronicles I Chronicles Babylonian Captivity 70 years 921 BC Joshua Judges Ruth The Book of Nehemiah II Samuel I Kings I Samuel II Kings Joel ? The Book of Esther Jeremiah / Lamentations Josiah Jehoiakim Zedekiah Isaiah : Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah 20 Kings of Judah Ezekiel “fifth year of King Jehoiachin's captivity 605 BC 597 BC 586 BC Daniel “In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim…”

  5. II Kings 14:23-29 - In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, became king in Samaria, and reigned forty-one years. 24 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD; he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin. 25 He restored the territory of Israel from the entrance of Hamath to the Sea of the Arabah, according to the word of the LORD God of Israel, which He had spoken through His servant Jonah the son of Amittai, the prophet who was from Gath Hepher. 26 For the LORD saw that the affliction of Israel was very bitter; and whether bond or free, there was no helper for Israel.

  6. 27 And the LORD did not say that He would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven; but He saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash. 28 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did-his might, how he made war, and how he recaptured for Israel, from Damascus and Hamath, what had belonged to Judah- are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? 29 So Jeroboam rested with his fathers, the kings of Israel. Then Zechariah his son reigned in his place. c.f. Amos 3:10-15 Amos 4:1 Amos 5:12 Amos 6:1-8 Amos 7:9 Amos 8:5-6

Their lies lead them astray, Lies which their fathers followed.” 2:4-5 Israel – “… Because they sell the righteous for silver, And the poor for a pair of sandals. 7 They pant after the dust of the earth which is on the head of the poor, And pervert the way of the humble. A man and his father go in to the same girl, To defile My holy name. 8 They lie down by every altar on clothes taken in pledge, And drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.” 2:6-16
