Amos: Let Justice Roll Down
A shepherd from Tekoa confronts a wealthy nation: God hates worship that ignores the poor. Let justice roll down like waters.
Amos prophesied around 760 BC in the reign of Jeroboam II, a time of prosperity in Israel. He dates his ministry 'two years before the earthquake' (1:1).
