{"id":4645,"verse_id":"AMO.1.1","translation_id":"net-engnet","book_id":"AMO","chapter":1,"verse":1,"note_index":1,"note_type":"study_note","label":"NET study note","caller":"6","reference":"1.1","text":"This refers to a well-known earthquake that occurred during the first half of the 8th century b.c . According to a generally accepted dating system, Uzziah was a co-regent with his father Amaziah from 792-767 b.c. and ruled independently from 767-740 b.c . Jeroboam II was a co-regent with his father Joash from 793-782 b.c. and ruled independently from 782-753 b.c . Since only Uzziah and Jeroboam are mentioned in the introduction it is likely that Amos’ mission to Israel and the earthquake which followed occurred between 767-753 b.c . The introduction validates the genuine character of Amos’ prophetic ministry in at least two ways: (1) Amos was not a native Israelite or a prophet by trade. Rather he was a herdsman in Tekoa, located in Judah. His mere presence in the northern kingdom as a prophet was evidence that he had been called by God (see 7:14-15 ). (2) The mighty earthquake shortly after Amos’ ministry would have been interpreted as an omen or signal of approaching judgment. The clearest references to an earthquake are 1:1 and 9:1, 5 . It is possible that the verb הָפַךְ ( hafakh , “overturn”) at 3:13-15, 4:11, 6:11, and 8:8 also refers to an earthquake, as might the descriptions at 2:13 and 6:9-10 . Evidence of a powerful earthquake has been correlated with a destruction layer at Hazor and other sites. Its lasting impact is evident by its mention in Zech 14:5 and 2 Chr 26:16-21 . Earthquake imagery appears in later prophets as well (cf. D. N. Freedman and A. Welch, “Amos’s Earthquake and Israelite Prophecy,” Scripture and Other Artifacts , 188-98). On the other hand, some of these verses in Amos could allude to the devastation that would be caused by the imminent military invasion.","source_note_position":6,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Amos%201%3A1/6"}
