아모스서 요약
저자: 아모스서 1장 1절은 아모스서의 저자를 선지자 아모스로 밝히고 있습니다.
전체 기사: 아모스서는 누가 썼나요? 아모스서의 저자는 누구인가요?

Date of Writing: The Book of Amos was likely written between 760 and 753 B.C.
기록 날짜: 아모스서는 기원전 760년에서 753년 사이에 기록되었을 가능성이 높습니다.

Purpose of Writing: Amos is a shepherd and a fruit picker from the Judean village of Tekoa when God calls him, even though he lacks an education or a priestly background. Amos' mission is directed to his neighbor to the north, Israel. His messages of impending doom and captivity for the nation because of her sins are largely unpopular and unheeded, however, because not since the days of Solomon have times been so good in Israel. Amos' ministry takes place while Jeroboam II reigns over Israel, and Uzziah reigns over Judah.
집필 목적: 아모스는 학력이나 사제적 배경이 부족하지만 유대 테코아 마을에서 목동이자 과일 따는 일을 하던 중 하나님의 부르심을 받습니다. 아모스의 사명은 북쪽 이웃인 이스라엘로 향합니다. 그러나 이스라엘의 죄로 인해 임박한 파멸과 포로가 될 것이라는 그의 메시지는 솔로몬 시대 이후로 이스라엘의 시대가 그렇게 좋았던 적이 없었기 때문에 크게 인기도 없고 귀담아듣지도 않습니다. 아모스의 사역은 여로보암 2세가 이스라엘을 통치하고 웃시야가 유다를 통치하는 동안에 이루어집니다.

Key Verses:
Amos 2:4, "This is what the LORD says: 'For three sins of Judah, even for four, I will not turn back [my wrath]. Because they have rejected the law of the LORD and have not kept his decrees, because they have been led astray by false gods, the gods their ancestors followed.'"
핵심 구절:
아모스 2:4, "주님께서 이렇게 말씀하십니다: '유다의 세 가지 죄, 심지어 네 가지 죄 때문에 나는 [내 진노를] 돌이키지 않겠다. 그들이 여호와의 율법을 거역하고 그 명령을 지키지 않았으며, 그들의 조상들이 따르던 거짓 신들에게 이끌려 길을 잃었기 때문이다.'"

Amos 3:7, "Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets."
아모스 3:7, "주권자이신 여호와께서 그분의 종 선지자들에게 그분의 계획을 계시하지 않고는 아무것도 행하지 않으십니다."

Amos 9:14, "I will bring back my exiled people Israel; they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit."
아모스 9:14, "내가 유배된 내 백성 이스라엘을 돌아오게 하여 폐허가 된 성읍을 재건하고 그 안에서 살게 하리라. 그들은 포도원을 심고 포도주를 마실 것이며, 정원을 만들고 그 열매를 먹을 것이다."

Brief Summary: Amos can see that beneath Israel’s external prosperity and power, internally the nation is corrupt to the core. The sins for which Amos chastens the people are extensive: neglect of God’s Word, idolatry, pagan worship, greed, corrupted leadership, and oppression of the poor. Amos begins by pronouncing a judgment upon all the surrounding nations, then upon his own nation of Judah, and finally the harshest judgment is given to Israel. His visions from God reveal the same emphatic message: judgment is near. The book ends with God’s promise to Amos of future restoration of the remnant.
요약: 아모스는 이스라엘의 외형적인 번영과 권력의 이면에 이스라엘이 내부적으로 부패해 있음을 알 수 있습니다. 아모스가 백성들을 징계하는 죄는 하나님의 말씀 무시, 우상 숭배, 이교도 숭배, 탐욕, 타락한 지도층, 가난한 사람들에 대한 억압 등 광범위합니다. 아모스는 주변 모든 나라에 대한 심판을 선포하는 것으로 시작하여 자신의 조국 유다에 대한 심판을 선포하고, 마지막으로 이스라엘에 가장 가혹한 심판을 내립니다. 아모스가 하나님께 받은 환상은 심판이 가까웠다는 동일한 강조 메시지를 드러냅니다. 이 책은 아모스에게 남은 자의 회복에 대한 하나님의 약속으로 끝납니다.

Foreshadowings: The Book of Amos ends with a glorious promise for the future. “’I will plant Israel in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them,’ says the LORD your God” (9:15). The ultimate fulfillment of God’s land promise to Abraham (Gen. 12:7; 15:7; 17:8) will occur during Christ’s millennial reign on earth (see Joel 2:26,27). Revelation 20 describes the thousand-year reign of Christ on the earth, a time of peace and joy under the perfect government of the Savior Himself. At that time, believing Israel and the Gentile Christians will be combined in the Church and will live and reign with Christ.
예언: 아모스서는 미래에 대한 영광스러운 약속으로 끝납니다. "'내가 이스라엘을 그들의 땅에 심어 내가 그들에게 준 땅에서 다시는 뿌리 뽑히지 않게 하겠다'(9:15)." 주 너희의 하나님이 말씀하십니다. 아브라함에게 주신 하나님의 땅 약속(창 12:7, 15:7, 17:8)의 궁극적인 성취는 그리스도의 지상 천년 통치 기간에 이루어질 것입니다(요엘 2:26,27 참조). 요한계시록 20장은 구세주 자신의 완전한 통치 아래 평화와 기쁨의 시간인 그리스도의 지상 천년 통치를 묘사합니다. 그 때에 믿는 이스라엘과 이방인 그리스도인들은 교회 안에서 하나가 되어 그리스도와 함께 살며 통치하게 될 것입니다.

Practical Application: Sometimes we think we are a "just-a"! We are just-a salesman, farmer, or housewife. Amos would be considered a "just-a." He wasn’t a prophet or priest or the son of either. He was just a shepherd, a small businessman in Judah. Who would listen to him? But instead of making excuses, Amos obeyed and became God’s powerful voice for change.
실제 적용: 때때로 우리는 스스로를 '그저 그런 사람'이라고 생각합니다! 우리는 세일즈맨, 농부, 주부일 뿐입니다. 아모스는 "그냥 사람"으로 간주될 수 있습니다. 그는 선지자나 제사장도 아니었고, 어느 쪽의 아들도 아니었습니다. 그는 그저 유다의 목동이자 작은 사업가였을 뿐입니다. 누가 그의 말에 귀를 기울일까요? 하지만 아모스는 변명하는 대신 순종하여 변화를 위한 하나님의 강력한 목소리가 되었습니다.

God has used ordinary people such as shepherds, carpenters, and fishermen all through the Bible. Whatever you are in this life, God can use you. Amos wasn’t much. He was a "just-a." "Just-a" servant for God. It is good to be God’s "just-a."
하나님은 성경을 통해 목자, 목수, 어부와 같은 평범한 사람들을 사용하셨습니다. 여러분이 이 세상에서 어떤 존재이든 하나님은 여러분을 사용하실 수 있습니다. 아모스는 별 볼일 없는 사람이었습니다. 그는 "그냥-아"였습니다. 하나님의 "그냥" 종이었습니다. 하나님의 "그냥"이 되는 것은 좋은 일입니다.

Amos Summary

성경 요약
아모스 요약
by 제이 스미스


The purpose of the book of Amos was to announce God’s holy judgment on the Kingdom of Israel (the Northern Kingdom), call them to repentance, and to turn from their self-righteous sins and idolatry. God raised up the prophet Amos, as an act of His great mercy to a people who repeatedly shunned and disobeyed Him.
아모스서의 목적은 이스라엘 왕국(북왕국)에 대한 하나님의 거룩한 심판을 선포하고, 그들에게 회개를 촉구하며, 독선적인 죄와 우상 숭배에서 돌이키도록 촉구하는 것이었습니다. 하나님은 반복적으로 하나님을 외면하고 불순종하는 백성에게 큰 자비의 행동으로 아모스 선지자를 일으켜 세우셨습니다.


•    Chapter 1-3, Amos came as the days of the wicked Northern Kingdom were winding down. The people were religious but it was sadly superficial. Amos announces that the neighboring nations would be punished. There were many of these wicked nations including Damascus, Gaza, Edom, and Tyre.
- 1-3장, 아모스는 사악한 북왕국의 시대가 끝나갈 무렵에 왔습니다. 백성들은 종교를 가지고 있었지만 슬프게도 피상적이었습니다. 아모스는 이웃 나라들이 벌을 받을 것이라고 선포합니다. 다마스커스, 가자, 에돔, 두로 등 많은 악한 나라들이 있었습니다.


•    In chapters 4-8, Amos warns that Israel will be destroyed, and gives examples of this judgment. Amos comes, announces God’s coming judgment to the Northern Kingdom and uses the phrase, “the day of the Lord” referring to God intervening to punish and judge the wicked city, which would eventually be exile by the Assyrians.
“Seek good and not evil, that you may live; and thus may the LORD God of hosts be with you, just as you have said!” (5:14).
- 4-8장에서 아모스는 이스라엘이 멸망할 것이라고 경고하고 이 심판의 예를 제시합니다. 아모스는 북왕국에 하나님의 심판이 임할 것을 선포하며 "여호와의 날"이라는 표현을 사용하여 하나님이 개입하여 악한 도시를 벌하고 심판하실 것이며, 결국 앗수르에 의해 유배될 것을 언급합니다.
"너희가 살기 위하여 악을 구하지 말고 선을 구하라 그리하면 만군의 하나님 여호와께서 너희의 말과 같이 너희와 함께 하시리라!" (5:14).


•    In chapter 9, Amos tells of the restoration and hope of Israel, “In that day I will raise up the fallen booth of David, and wall up its breaches; I will also raise up its ruins And rebuild it as in the days of old” (9:11).
- 9장에서 아모스는 이스라엘의 회복과 소망에 대해 말한다. "그 날에 내가 다윗의 무너진 성을 일으키고 그 틈을 막으며 그 폐허를 일으켜 옛적과 같이 재건하리라"(9:11).
