(3.63) | 1 | The life and mission of Amos the shepherd and prophet have always fascinated students of the Old Testament. This rancher-farmer from Tekoa, summoned dramatically by Yahweh to prophesy to Israel under the kingship of Jeroboam II (eighth century B.C.E.) about the corruption, injustice, and religious insincerity of his time, has intrigued scholars for centuries. Was Amos' message one of judgment and retribution only, or also of redemption? Noted scholars Francis I. Andersen and David Noel Freedman, authors of the critically acclaimed Hosea, team up to examine and explain this critical segment of the Bible.

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. PREFACE It is almost obligatory these days, especially in prefaces or prefatory remarks to quote Ecclesiastes 12:12: Book learning is an endless occupation, and much study is exhausting. as part of an atavistic apotropaic rite of prophylactic procedure to justify yet one more bulky commentary on a thin book of scripture -- to exorcise the demons lying in wait at the door of the Temple of Learning or, more prosaically, to disarm and defuse the critics and reviewers ready to pounce. | |
