Thus saith: Amos, says Abp. Newcome, first prophesies against the Syrians, Philistines, Tyrians, Edomites, Ammonites, and Moabites, who dwelt in the neighbourhood of the twelve tribes, and had occasionally become their enemies and persecutors. Having thus taught his countrymen that the providence of God extended to other nations, he briefly mentions the idolatrous practices and consequent destruction of Judah, and then passes on to his proper subject, which was to exhort and reprove the kingdom of Israel, and to denounce against it the Divine judgments. For three: Amo 6:3-7; Kg2 17:7-18, Kg2 18:12; Eze 23:5-9; Hos 4:1, Hos 4:2, Hos 4:11-14, Hos 7:7-10, Hos 8:4-6; Hos 13:2, Hos 13:3; Mic 6:10-16 because: Amo 5:11, Amo 5:12, Amo 8:4-6; Isa 5:22, Isa 5:23, Isa 29:21; Joe 3:3, Joe 3:6; Mic 3:2, Mic 3:3 Amos 2:7
