NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “The words of Amos.” Among the prophetic books this opening phrase finds a parallel only at Jer 1:1 but is not that uncommon in other genres (note, e.g., Prov 30:1; 31:1; Eccl 1:1; Neh 1:1). 2 tn Heb “who.” Here a new sentence has been started in the translation for stylistic reasons. 3 tn Heb “which he saw concerning Israel.” 4 tn Heb “in the days of.” 5 tn The Hebrew text repeats, “and in the days of.” This phrase has not been repeated in the translation for stylistic reasons. 6 sn This refers to a well-known earthquake that occurred during the first half of the 8th century |
