Chapter 7 - Old Testament Minor Prophets, Amos (pt 1)
from Biblical Literacy Podcast
Dr. David Capes taught today in the continuing study of the Minor Prophets with an introduction to Amos. The prophet Amos was a shepherd and a man of means in the 8th century BC. He prophesied the future of the northern kingdom Israel by speaking to the people what God revealed. He spoke of judgment coming against Israel and other neighboring countries and why. Although Amos’ words highlighted doom and gloom, Dr. Capes teaches, through the words of the prophet Amos, there is wisdom in obedience to God. Points for home: 1) The Bible contains judgment and promise. 2) God is God over all people. 3) Obedience brings blessings.
