(AMOS 5:24)\n\nJustice\, justice shall you pursue \, that you may thrive and occupy the land that your God YHVH is giving yo u. (Deuteronomy 16:20)\n\nOur ten-session class will study 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 mil es south of Jerusalem. Although he was from the Southern Kingdom\, his pro phecies focused on Israel\, the Northern Kingdom. Unlike many of the other prophets\, his primary charges against Israel dealt with injustice and im morality. Paganism\, for Amos\, was a secondary issue. Amos was a master o f rhetorical argument\, and his powerful use of metaphors is classical.\n\ nStudents will receive English/Hebrew texts in advance of our Zoom meeting s so they can be reviewed in advance. Interactive discussion will constitu te the methodology of our sessions. While Hebrew literacy is always helpfu l in the study of the Bible\, those who will primarily use the English tra nslation will be able to actively participate and feel comfortable.\n\nOur class will meet weekly on Tuesday evenings\, 7:30-9:00 pm\, starting on N ovember 12\, 2024.\nClass Dates: November 12\, 19\, 26\; December 10\, 17\ , 24\; January 7\, 14\, 21\, 28\; February 4.\n\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttp s://us02web.zoom.us/j/85810642329?pwd=Zv5TKKyrQR910HP1GDiN7V7dhw725b.1\n\n Meeting ID: 858 1064 2329\nPasscode: 048332 CATEGORIES:Rembaum Institute END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Los_Angeles X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Los_Angeles BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20241103T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0700 TZOFFSETTO:-0800 TZNAME:PST END:STANDARD END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
