It is part of a larger publication that was first compiled and translated in the late 16th to early 17th centuries, with the Douay-Rheims Bible being published during this time. The Book of Amos, traditionally attributed to the prophet Amos, addresses the themes of social justice and divine judgment, issuing warnings to the people of Israel and surrounding nations regarding their moral and ethical shortcomings. In the Book of Amos, the prophet Amos delivers a series of harsh proclamations against Israel for its injustices and unrepentant sinfulness. He begins by outlining God’s judgment against neighboring nations for their transgressions, such as violence and captivity. Amos emphasizes the moral decay of Israel, condemning its leaders for oppression of the poor, idolatry, and corruption. He calls for the Jews to return to righteousness and social justice, indicating that their failure to do so will lead to dire consequences. Ultimately, while Amos predicts a bleak future due to the people's sins, he also expresses hope for restoration and invokes the theme of divine mercy that hints at eventual renewal for the people of Israel.
