Amos Chapitre 6 1 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
Amos Chapitre 6 2 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
2. Calneh--on the east bank of the Tigris. Once powerful, but recently subjugated by Assyria
(Isa 10:9;
about 794 B.C.).
Hameth--subjugated by Jeroboam II
(2Ki 14:25).
Also by Assyria subsequently
(2Ki 18:34).
Compare
Am 6:14.
Gath--subjugated by Uzziah
(2Ch 26:6).
be they better--no. Their so recent subjugation renders it needless for Me to tell you they are not. And yet they once were; still they could not defend themselves against the enemy. How vain, then, your secure confidence in the strength of Mounts Zion and Samaria! He takes cities respectively east, north, south, and west of Israel (compare
Na 3:8).
Amos Chapitre 6 3 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
3. Ye persuade yourselves that "the evil day" foretold by the prophets is "far off," though they declare it near
(Eze 12:22, 27).
Ye in your imagination put it far off, and therefore bring near violent oppression, suffering it to sit enthroned, as it were, among you
(Ps 94:20).
The notion of judgment being far off has always been an incentive to the sinner's recklessness of living
(Ec 8:12, 13; Mt 24:48).
Yet that very recklessness brings near the evil day which he puts far off. "Ye bring on fever by your intemperance, and yet would put it far off" [CALVIN].
Amos Chapitre 6 4 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
4. (See
Am 2:8).
beds of ivory--that is, adorned, or inlaid, with ivory
(Am 3:15).
stretch themselves--in luxurious self-indulgence.
lambs out of the flock--picked out as the choicest, for their owners' selfish gratification.
Amos Chapitre 6 5 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
5. chant--literally, "mark distinct sounds and tones."
viol--the lyre, or lute.
invent . . . instruments . . . like David--They fancy they equal David in musical skill
(1Ch 23:5; Ne 12:36).
They defend their luxurious passion for music by his example: forgetting that he pursued this study when at peace and free from danger, and that for the praise of God; but they pursue for their own self-gratification, and that when God is angry and ruin is imminent.
Amos Chapitre 6 6 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
6. drink . . . in bowls--in the large vessels or basins in which wine was mixed; not satisfied with the smaller cups from which it was ordinarily drunk, after having been poured from the large mixer.
chief ointments--that is, the most costly: not for health or cleanliness, but wanton luxury.
not grieved for the affliction of Joseph--literally, "the breach," that is, the national wound or calamity
(Ps 60:2; Eze 34:4)
of the house of Joseph
(Am 5:6);
resembling in this the heartlessness of their forefathers, the sons of Jacob, towards Joseph, "eating bread" while their brother lay in the pit, and then selling him to Ishmaelites.
Amos Chapitre 6 7 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
7. Therefore . . . shall they go captive with the first--As they were first among the people in rank
(Am 6:1),
and anointed themselves "with the chief ointments"
(Am 6:6),
so shall they be among the foremost in going into captivity.
banquet--literally, the "merry-making shout of revellers"; from an Arabic root, "to cry out." In the Hebrew, marzeach; here, there is an allusion to mizraqu, "bowls"
(Am 6:6).
them that stretched themselves--on luxurious couches
(Am 6:4).
Amos Chapitre 6 8 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
8. the excellency of Jacob--
(Ps 47:4).
The sanctuary which was the great glory of the covenant-people [VATABLUS],
(Eze 24:21).
The priesthood, and kingdom, and dignity, conferred on them by God. These, saith God, are of no account in My eyes towards averting punishment [CALVIN].
hate his palaces--as being the storehouses of "robbery"
(Am 3:10, 15).
How sad a change from God's love of Zion's gates
(Ps 87:2)
and palaces
(Ps 48:3, 13),
owing to the people's sin!
the city--collectively: both Zion and Samaria
(Am 6:1).
all that is therein--literally, "its fulness"; the multitude of men and of riches in it (compare
Ps 24:1).
Am 6:1-14.
DENUNCIATION OF BOTH THE SISTER NATIONS (ESPECIALLY THEIR NOBLES) FOR WANTON SECURITY--ZION, AS WELL AS SAMARIA: THREAT OF THE EXILE: RUIN OF THEIR PALACES AND SLAUGHTER OF THE PEOPLE: THEIR PERVERSE INJUSTICE.
1. named chief of the nations--that is, you nobles, so eminent in influence, that your names are celebrated among the chief nations [LUDOVICUS DE DIEU]. Hebrew, "Men designated by name among the first-fruits of the nations," that is, men of note in Israel, the people chosen by God as first of the nations
(Ex 19:5;
compare
Nu 24:20)
[PISCATOR].
to whom . . . Israel came--that is, the princes to whom the Israelites used to repair for the decision of controversies, recognizing their authority [MAURER]. I prefer to refer "which" to the antecedent "Zion" and "Samaria"; these were esteemed "chief" strongholds among the heathen nations "to whom . . . Israel came" when it entered Canaan;
Am 6:2
accords with this.
