Amos 9 · Grade 4

The Fallen Tent Rebuilt

Name Date

Read and Think

Amos 9 begins: I saw the Lord standing beside the altar. No one could hide from God's judgment. Though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down. God sees and reaches every place.

Yet judgment is not the end. God says He will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob. He will sift the house of Israel among all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet not the least kernel will fall on the earth. God keeps His faithful ones even in judgment.

Then the book turns to hope. In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen and close up its breaches. God promises plenty: sweet wine will drip from the mountains. I will bring my people Israel back from captivity. I will plant them on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land. In the New Testament, James quotes this promise in Acts 15:16: I will again build the tabernacle of David, which has fallen.
