"Affluence, exploitation and the profit motive were the most notable features of the society which Amos observed and in which he worked. ... Standards had gone to pot. Authority and the rule of law were despised, and national leader-ship, while revelling in the publicity and dignity of position seemed to be contributing to the complete breakdown of law and order. J. A. Motyer exposes and explains the ever rel-evant-but never popular-message of the prophet Amos. Michael Green says, "Alec Motyer has clearly got the spirit of Amos in his blood. He loves the prophet from Tekoa, and takes endless pains to give full weight to every syllable of the prophecy. He is, of course, a distinguished scholar, and we are given full value on that front; but you will find here none of the dreary aca-demic deadness which all too often comes through in commentary work." J. A. Motyer is Principal of Trinity College. Bristol, England, and is author of several books, including Philippian Studies and The Tesis of Faith. He is the Old Testament Editor of The New Bible Commentary: Revised and a contributor to The New Bible Dictionary. 224.8070877847665 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 224.807 Mot d E91001969 Non Fiction 224.807 Mot d Day_Of_Lion.jpg 54656 2014-12-15 09:59:10 2025-03-06 17:58:38 machine generated
