Amos was active in the mid-eighth c entury BCE (ca. 750 BCE). He lived in the kingdom of Judah\, in a town cal led Tekoa\, some ten miles south of Jerusalem. Although he was from the So uthern Kingdom\, his prophecies focused on Israel\, the Northern Kingdom. Unlike many of the other prophets\, his primary charges against Israel dea lt with injustice and immorality. Paganism\, for Amos\, was a secondary is sue. Amos was a master of rhetorical argument\, and his powerful use of me taphors is classical.\n\nStudents should bring a Bible to each class. They will receive reading assignments in advance of our Zoom meetings. Interac tive discussion will constitute the methodology of our sessions. While Heb rew literacy is always helpful in the study of the Bible\, those who will primarily use the English translation will be able to actively participate and feel comfortable. The first reading assignment is AMOS CHAPTER 5.\n\n \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/81119306038?pwd=eTkeiacxOea LOFSVr51m43f2A9xPRD.1\nMeeting ID: 811 1930 6038 Passcode: 171078 CATEGORIES:Rembaum Institute END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Los_Angeles X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Los_Angeles BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20250309T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0800 TZOFFSETTO:-0700 TZNAME:PDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
