Amos, a Guy Who Just Wanted to Be Left Alone

Amos is a masterful wordsmith and I could practically just read you the whole book. But back to Amos himself, this guy who just wanted to take care of figs and sheep and be left alone because he didn't want to fight this stuff. He only gets commissioned to speak to his own people of Judah for like, what, four, five sentences there. Instead, he is almost presumptuously being thrust into a foreign country that frankly is doing very, very well by all external measures.
