AMOS CHAPTER 5



A lamentation for Israel, Amo_5:1-3. An exhortation to repentance, Amo_5:4-20. God rejecteth their hypocritical service, Amo_5:21-27.



This preface you have in the same words Amo_3:1, and in part also Amo_4:1; to which I now add, that the person here speaking may refer to the prophet and to the Lord who sent him, both speak this word.



A lamentation; which is very sad and mournful to all concerned in it, woeful news to the kingdom of the ten tribes.
