Also note the progression from a general question in v. 3 to the “meetings” of two animals (v. 4 ), to that of an animal and a human trap (v. 5 ), to a climax with the confrontation with the Lord (v. 6 ). Each of these meetings is disastrous.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Amos%203%3A3/1"}

On the other hand, there actually are hills that surround the mound upon which the city was built. The implication is that the nations can come and sit and see from those hills the sin of the capital city and its judgment. map For location of the city see Map2-B1 ; Map4-D3 ; Map5-E2 ; Map6-A4 ; Map7-C1 .","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Amos%203%3A9/2"}

A shepherd would attempt to salvage part of an animal to prove that a predator had indeed killed it. In this way he could prove that he had not stolen the missing animal and absolve himself from any responsibility to repay the owner (see Exod 22:12-13 ).","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Amos%203%3A12/1"}

Fugitives could seek asylum by grabbing hold of these corners (see Exod 21:14 ; 1 Kgs 1:50; 2:28 ).
