Amos (hebräisch עָמוֹס [a'mos], altgriechisch Αμως) war ein sozialkritischer Prophet aus dem Südreich Juda, der im 8. Jahrhundert v. Chr. im Nordreich Israel wirkte. Das ihm zugeschriebene Buch gehört zum Zwölfprophetenbuch im Tanach, der hebräischen Bibel. Amos ist der erste der Propheten, dessen Worte aufgezeichnet und in Buchform überliefert wurden (Schriftprophetie). https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amos

Amos (/ˈeɪməs/; Hebrew: עָמוֹס – ʿĀmōs) was one of the Twelve Minor Prophets of the Hebrew Bible and Christian Old Testament. According to the Bible, Amos was the older contemporary of Hosea and Isaiah and was active c. 760–755 BC during the rule of kings Jeroboam II of Israel and Uzziah of the Kingdom of Judah and is portrayed as being from the southern Kingdom of Judah yet preaching in the northern Kingdom of Israel (Samaria). The prophet is characterized as speaking against an increased disparity between the wealthy and the poor with themes of justice, God's omnipotence, and divine judgment. The Book of Amos is attributed to him. In recent years, scholars have grown more skeptical of the Book of Amos's presentation of Amos's biography and background. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amos_(prophet)
