Newcome, first prophesies against the Syrians, Philistines, Tyrians, Edomites, Ammonites, and Moabites, who dwelt in the neighbourhood of the twelve tribes, and had occasionally become their enemies and persecutors. Having thus taught his countrymen that the providence of God extended to other nations, he briefly mentions the idolatrous practices and consequent destruction of Judah, and then passes on to his proper subject, which was to exhort and reprove the kingdom of Israel, and to denounce against it the Divine judgments.For threeAmos 6:3-7; 2 Kings 17:7-18, 18:12; Ezekiel 23:5-9; Hosea 4:1, 4:2, 4:11-14, 7:7-10, 8:4-6; 13:2, 13:3; Micah 6:10-16 becauseAmos 5:11, 5:12, 8:4-6; Isaiah 5:22, 5:23, 29:21; Joel 3:3, 3:6; Micah 3:2, 3:3ReciprocalExodus 20:17 - thy neighbour's house; Esther 7:4 - But if we; Psalm 10:9 - when; Proverbs 6:16 - six; 22:7 - rich; Isaiah 3:15 - ye beat; 17:3 - fortress; 32:6 - empty; Jeremiah 34:14 - At the; Ezekiel 18:7 - hath not; 22:13 - thy dishonest; Amos 1:3 - For; 2:1 - For three; 4:1 - which oppress; 8:6 - General; Acts 24:26 - hoped; Romans 7:14 - sold; James 2:6 - Do; Revelation 18:13 - slaves Verse 7pantAmos 4:1; 1 Kings 21:4; Proverbs 28:21; Micah 2:2, 2:9, 7:2, 7:3; Zephaniah 3:3 and turnAmos 5:12; Isaiah 10:2 and aLeviticus 18:8, 18:15; Ezekiel 22:11; 1 Corinthians 5:1 maidor, young womanto profaneLeviticus 20:3; 2 Samuel 12:14; Ezekiel 36:20; Romans 2:24ReciprocalExodus 20:17 - thy neighbour's house; Leviticus 18:17 - a woman; 20:11 - General; 20:14 - a wife; Deuteronomy 24:14 - General; 27:20 - General; Job 24:4 - turn; 24:10 - they take away; Psalm 10:9 - when; Proverbs 30:14 - to devour; Isaiah 3:15 - ye beat; 32:6 - empty; 57:5 - Enflaming; Ezekiel 22:10 - discovered; Hosea 12:7 - he loveth; Malachi 1:12 - ye have; Luke 20:47 - devour; Acts 24:26 - hoped; James 2:6 - Do Verse 8laidExodus 22:26, 22:27; Deuteronomy 24:12-17; Ezekiel 18:7, 18:12 byAmos 6:4; Isaiah 57:7; Ezekiel 23:41; 1 Corinthians 8:10, 10:7, 10:21 they drinkAmos 6:6; Judges 9:27; Hosea 4:8 the condemnedor, such as have fined, or, mulctedReciprocalExodus 32:6 - sat down; Deuteronomy 24:13 - deliver; Esther 1:6 - the beds; Job 22:6 - For thou; 24:10 - they take away; Isaiah 28:1 - drunkards; 57:5 - Enflaming; Ezekiel 33:15 - restore; Hosea 3:1 - love flagons; 7:14 - assemble; Amos 4:1 - Bring Verse 9I theGenesis 15:16; Exodus 3:8, 34:11; Numbers 21:24; Deuteronomy 2:24-33; Joshua 3:10, 24:8-12; Judges 11:21-23; Nehemiah 9:22-24; Psalm 135:10-12, 136:17-22 whoseNumbers 13:28, 13:29, 13:32, 13:33; Deuteronomy 1:28, 2:10, 2:11, 3:11, 9:1-3 I destroyedJoshua 11:21, 11:22; 2 Samuel 23:16-22; Job 18:16; Isaiah 5:24; Malachi 4:1ReciprocalGenesis 48:22 - Amorite; Deuteronomy 1:7 - the mount; Joshua 5:1 - all the kings; 24:17 - General; 1 Samuel 17:4 - whose height; 1 Kings 14:15 - root up Israel; 1 Chronicles 1:14 - Amorite; Psalm 92:12 - cedar; Isaiah 10:33 - the high ones Verse 10I broughtExodus 12:51; Nehemiah 9:8-12; Psalm 105:42, 105:43, 136:10, 136:11; Jeremiah 32:20, 32:21; Ezekiel 20:10; Micah 6:4 and ledNumbers 14:34; Deuteronomy 2:7, 8:2-4; Nehemiah 9:21; Psalm 95:10; Acts 7:42, 13:18 to possessNumbers 14:31-35; Deuteronomy 1:20, 1:21, 1:39ReciprocalJoshua 24:17 - General; Amos 3:1 - which; 9:7 - Have not; Matthew 2:23 - He shall; Acts 13:17 - and with; Habakkuk 3:9 - forty Verse 11I raised1 Samuel 3:20, 19:20; 1 Kings 17:1, 18:4, 19:16, 20:13, 20:35, 20:41, 22:8; 2 Kings 2:2-5; 6:1, 17:13; 2 Chronicles 36:15; 2 Peter 1:20, 1:21 andAmos 7:12, 7:13; Isaiah 30:10, 30:11; Jeremiah 11:21, 26:11; Micah 2:6; Matthew 21:34-38; Acts 4:18, 5:28, 7:51; 1 Thessalonians 2:15, 2:16 NazaritesNumbers 6:2; Judges 13:4-7; Lamentations 4:7; Luke 1:3-17 Is itIsaiah 5:3, 5:4; Jeremiah 2:5, 2:31; Micah 6:3, 6:4ReciprocalEzekiel 25:8 - Seir; Hosea 12:13 - General; Zechariah 9:13 - and raised Verse 12ReciprocalNumbers 6:2 - to vow; 6:3 - General; Isaiah 28:1 - drunkards; 30:10 - say; Jeremiah 11:21 - Prophesy; 35:5 - Drink; Lamentations 4:7 - Nazarites; Ezekiel 25:8 - Seir; Hosea 12:13 - General; Amos 3:8 - who can; 7:12 - go; 7:13 - prophesy; Micah 2:6 - Prophesy ye; Acts 4:17 - let; 5:40 - they commanded Verse 13BeholdPsalm 78:40; Isaiah 1:14, 7:13, 43:24; Ezekiel 6:9, 16:43; Malachi 2:17 I am pressedetc. or, I will press your place, as a cart full of sheaves pressethReciprocalJob 39:12 - he; Jeremiah 44:22 - could Verse 14the flightAmos 9:1-3; Job 11:20 *marg.
