  • Let Justice Well Up Like Water — the Book of Amos - Class 6

    Let Justice Well Up Like Water — the Book of Amos - Class 6
    Jan 8 2025
    This is the sixth class in a ten-session series studying the Book of the prophet Amos. Amos was active in the mid-eighth century BCE (ca. 750 BCE). He lived in the kingdom of Judah, in a town called Tekoa, some ten miles south of Jerusalem. Although he was from the Southern Kingdom, his prophecies focused on Israel, the Northern Kingdom. Unlike many of the other prophets, his primary charges against Israel dealt with injustice and immorality. Paganism, for Amos, was a secondary issue. Amos was a master of rhetorical argument, and his powerful use of metaphors is classical. The class took place via Zoom on January 7, 2025 Special Guest: Rabbi Emeritus Joel Rembaum.
