Amos Perek 8

• Hashem shows Amos a vision of a basket of summer fruit. Note: According to Radak, the word for summer is “kayitz” which is the same word as “keytz,” meaning the end.

• Because Yisrael is coming to an end!

• Hashem will no longer forgive His nation.

• The nation constantly exploits the poor and the destitute.

• God won’t forget how Yisrael has acted.

• The entire earth will quake!

• On that ultimate day, the sun will set early and the earth will be darkened.

• On that Day, there will be a famine in the land, it won’t be for bread or water but people will be starving to hear the word of God.

• Throughout the world people will be wandering, trying to satisfy their thirst for the word of God.
