C, during the reign of Jeroboam II. Place â€" Amos was of the viiiage of Tekoa, five miles south of Bethlehem, and ten miles south of the city of Jerusalem. "Thus he showed me: and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb-line, with a plumb-line in his hand." This is, of course, only a vision given tc Amos, symbolizing the judgments that he was sent to announce. A plumb-line, as every am knows, is a string with a weight at the end of it, dropped from the top of a wall to determine whether the wall is strictly perpendicular, at right angles with the foundation. "And Jehovah said unto me. Anios^ what seest thou? And I said, A plumb-line. Then said the Lord, Be- hold, I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel; I will not again pass by them any more." Just as the architect subjects a wall to the test of the piunib-line, so wiii God subject Israel to the test of justice, and, just as the architect orders the destruction of a wall that c-annot stand the test when applied, so will Ciod command that his people be destroyed because they are in- curably wicked. "And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against tha house of Jero- boam with the sword." Tha high places were the local sanctuaries, usually situated on eminences, a lit- tle outside" the towns to which they belonged, where the people were ac- customed to worship, where an altar and genei-ally a shrine were erected, and where sacrifices were offered, "Then .•Vmaziath the priest of Bethel." This man was the leading ecclesiastic of his day, a sort of .Archbishop of Canterbury, if wa may permit ourselves a modern comparis- on, and responsible for the worship in tha royal sanctuary. "Sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos." Note liow tha mere mention of the name without description proves that the prophet was already known in Israel, perhaps was one on whom the authorities had long kept their eye. "Hath conspired agalhat thee in the midst of the house of I-srael: tha land is not able to bear all his words." Amaziah does not mean to charge Amos with havdng a secret understanding with others to dethrone the king, but, as the next shows, with using language that was calculated to produce such a con- spiracy. "For thus .â- Vmos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Isii shall suiel> ue led away captive out of his land." See 6 : 7. How pitiful on the part of Amaziah the priest to think that driving .-Vmos out of Ishael would have any effect upon the doom which God had pronounced through his prophet! "Also -A.maziah said unto .A.mos, thou seer.'' The word seer is here used in a contemptuous sense and has therefore to be translated by some such word as visionary. "Go, flee thou away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there." -Vmaziah implies that pro- phecy was a trade or profession, and insinuates that Amos is one of those prophets who lived upon pop- ularity. "But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it is the king's san- ctuary and it is a royal house." There is something infinitely pathetic in this clash of prophet and priest. Tho bravest and truest voice in Israel had spoken and the priest attempt- ed to stifle it. Then an.iwered .Anio.«, and said to .Vmaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son." Amos diS' claims being a prophet by trade oi profession, who might, for instance, have attempted his vocation without any special fitness. "But I was a herdsman, and a dresser of sycomore trees." •'-•And Jehovah took me from fol- lowing the flock, and Jehovah said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my peo- ple Israel." See the first paragraph of this lesson. "Now therefore hear thou the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Pro- phesy not against Israel, and drop not they word against the house of Isaac;" 17. "Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters "shall fall hy the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line; and thou thyself shalt die in a land that is unclean, and Israel shall sure-^ iy be led away captive out of hisj land." As a matter of fact, it was about twenty-live years later when Tigluth-pileser III invaded Israel, and ten years later when Samari* was finally attacked by Shalmanezer IV.
