In modern times Amos has come to be considered one of the most
important prophets, mainly for his uncompromising message about
social justice. This book provides a detailed exploration of this
theme and other important elements of the theology underlying the
book of Amos. It also includes chapters on the text itself,
providing a critical assessment of how the book came to be, the
original message of Amos and his circle, which parts of the book
may have been added by later scribes, and the finished form of the
book. The author also considers the book's reception in ancient and
modern times by interpreters as varied as rabbis, the Church
Fathers, the Reformers, and liberation theologians. Throughout, the
focus is on how to read the book of Amos holistically to understand
the organic development of the prophet's message through the many
stages of the book's development and interpretation.
