Amos the Prophet From Tekoa A Biblical Study

The text presents Amos as a farmer from Tekoa chosen by God to be a prophet during King Uzziah’s reign in Judah. It notes his modest origins, his occupation tending sycamore trees and sheep, and his divine calling to deliver God’s message despite humble beginnings. The lesson frames God as selecting prophets from various places and backgrounds.
