14:5 Some identify Azal (Hebrew ’atsal) as a district on the northeast side of Jerusalem inhabited by descendants of Azel (1 Chr 8:37-39; 9:43-44). Others emend the Hebrew to ’etsel, “alongside” or “the side [of it].” • The date of the earthquake in the days of King Uzziah is unknown, but Amos began his ministry two years before it (Amos 1:1). • The holy ones are probably the multitude of angels that worship God and serve as his army (see Ps 89:5, 7).
