PL
A critico-literary, exegetic and theological analysis of Amos 8,11-12 has brought the author to the conclusion, that prophet Amos in his threat has prognosticated God’s punishment which will be caused by the nation itself because of their rejection of the grace allowing them to understand Jahwe’s instruction and to recognize the sense of God’s interference with the history of mankind. The author sees a confirmation of her conclusions in the text of Isa. 6,9-10.
