Prophecy in Amos
- Amos tells Amaziah that his wife will become a whore, his children will be
killed, and he'll die in a pagan country. There is no evidence in the Bible (or anywhere else) that
any of these things occurred. 7:17
- God tells Amos that the end has come for the people of Israel. He won't wait any longer
to kill them all. 8:2
- "They shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them." Despite this promise, the Jews have been continually uprooted and
their lives disrupted. Even today, their land ownership falls into question. 9:15
