! 1st Reading: Amos 8:4-7
/Intro:/ Amos prophesied during a time of real prosperity in the Northern Kingdom, under Jeroboam II.
The verses preceding this selection indicate that God was tired of Israel's failure to live according to his concept of justice.
He tells Amos it is time to punish Israel and instructs him to prophesy these words.
