To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Their chief delight seemed to be to wrong the needy and helpless (Amos ii. 7). Their palaces were filled with the fruits of PUBLIC AND PRIVATE CORRUPTION 89 their violence and robbery (Amos iii. 10). Even the wives of the nobles, those from whom mercy might be expected, if from any source, only " oppressed the poor and crushed the needy " by urging their husbands on to greater exactions, in order to gratify their unholy appetites. The public tribunals, instead of being sources of justice, were ...made the instruments whereby the rulers extracted bribes and perverted the cause of the poor and helpless (Amos v. 12). Under such conditions there could be no harmony between classes, nor unity in the state. There is a g3;im significance in the message of Amaziah to the king respecting Amos's plain unveiling of Israel's social evils : " Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel : The land is not able to bear all his words. " Even the ruling class realized that only a leader was necessary to set the much wronged masses into a mad revolt.
