This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Thus Amos saith; so Amaziah falsely reports the prophet.
Jeroboam shall die by the sword: he no where said so, nor did he insinuate so much, but spake of his house distinguished from his person, as Amo_7:9.
Israel shall surely be led away captive: this indeed he foretold, but did no more contribute to it, or contrive it, than the physician doth who foretells the death of an uncounsellable patient, sick of a mortal disease.
Out of their own land: this is added to signify the greatness of the captivity.
