About this book

"The World English Bible (WEB): Amos" by Anonymous is a prophetic book written around 750 BC. The prophet Amos, a shepherd from Judah, delivers a harsh message to the northern Kingdom of Israel during prosperous times. He denounces social injustice and warns that God will judge Israel as severely as surrounding nations. Known for its sinister tone and violent portrayal of divine judgment, the book introduces "the Day of the Lord"—not as Israel's victory, but as their doom, emphasizing that covenant relationship offers no exemption from accountability for sin.
