Amos and Hosea
Amos and Hosea both react to corruption Israel. ... Amos warns Israel to return to covenantal fidelity or risk facing terrifying divine justice, whereas Hosea highlights the need for true knowledge of God in order to reap the benefits of God’s compassion for his son, Israel.
The prophets Amos and Hosea both worked during the 8th century. ... This is where Amos and Hosea come in. ... Amos and Hosea both exclaimed that while iniquity and injustice between men remained, it was impossible to have a good relationship with Yahweh. Amos and Hosea both attack Israel’s hypocrisy; they attack both injustice to the poor and the cult at Bethel and Gilgal.
Amos and Hosea, however, each define the focus of Israel’s problem differently.
