1 THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAf. PAGE TWO Thursday, April 13, 1950 7f k- mm m ivtmm REV. ROBERT H. HARPER . Amos the Prophet shJ His Pro gram Lesson Jor April 16: Amos 7:7-15; 8:l-3 Memory Selection: Amos 5: 6 AMOS, a native of Tekoa, near the northern boundary of Judah, who made a living by sell ing wool and figs, left his humble surroundings about 775 B.C. and appeared at Bethel, in Israel, to rebuke the king and his people for their wickedness. About 150 years had passed since the division of the nation. Jero boam, the first king of Israel, fear ing the loyalty of the people to the new government might be weak ened if they came in contact with the people of Judah several times a year in going to Jerusalem for the feasts, as they were command ed to do by the law of Moses, set up shrines at Dan and Bethel, with a degraded worship of Jehovah, and also allowed the worship of Baal. Under Jeroboam II the influence of impure religion had entirely corrupted the nation. The masses were poor and oppressed by the few who had all the wealth of the country. Under the figure of the plumb line and the basket of summer fruit, Amos predicted that Jehov ah would soon leave the nation tc its fate. About a generation after ward the terrible Assyrians de spoiled Israel, and the kingdom and its 10 tribes passed from his tory. The lessons of Amos are quite modern, we find, and as appli cable to present conditions as they were to those in Israel 2800 years ago. OUR CHURCHES ST.
