 ==Background of [[Amos]]==
 The name '''[[Amos]]''' means "burden" in Hebrew.  [http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Amos%201:1&version=31 Amos 1:1] says he was "among the shepherds of [[Tekoa (Biblical)|Tekoa]]", this is likely to refer to modern [[Tekua]], about 12 miles south-east of [[Bethlehem]]. He is often assumed to have been a rich shepherd. He was (according to 7:14) neither a "prophet nor a prophet's son" but "a herdsman and a dresser of sycomore trees," R.V. However, the Hebrew words used in 1:1 and 7:14 suggest the proprietor of flocks rather than a shepherd. However, some scholars, [[John Calvin]] among them, believe that in this particular case it is unlikely that Amos would be a wealthy person due to the geographical attributes of the land surrounding Tekoa.

 Like [[Micah]], Amos was called from his rural home to remind the rich and powerful of God's requirement for justice (e.g. 2:6-16). He claimed that religion that is not accompanied by right action is anathema to God (5:21ff.), and that the kingdom of Israel would be destroyed (e.g. 5:1-2; 8:2).
