Four Minor Prophets Era Lessons in Amos Tekoa Tale
The lesson overview covers the period 756 to 721 B C, placing Amos of Tekoa in a Northern Kingdom context marked by idolatry and commerce faults. It notes Jeroboam II's reign and Samaria's fall, contrasting the prosperous north with Judah, and highlights Amos as a humble but moral voice challenging injustice and religious hollowness.
