Introduction: The book of Amos contains the prophecy of Amos, a shepherd and sycamore fig farmer, concerning the coming judgment of God upon Israel and neighboring nations.
Amos 1:1 — Prophets, to whom God shows uncommon things to be shared prior to their occurrence with both commoners and kings, are commonly just common men, from common places, with common occupations. (Amos 1:1)
Amos 3:7 — God will do nothing until He informs His prophets, who He has called to inform His people. Although people may ignore God's prophets, the prophets leave the people without excuse, having forewarned them of all that is to befall them.
Amos 5:7 — When justice is twisted into the bitter gall of injustice righteousness is buried in the ground.
Amos 5:10-13 — When justice and truth are held to be revolting and the land is rife with corruption, the prudent are rendered silent by the risk of suffering persecution for speaking out in protest.
