Throughout this passage in Amos, God decries just how far His people have wandered from Him and His Law. The first sin was the oppression of the poor with social injustice, and crooked judges. The second sin was the sexual immorality of sex trafficking/sex trade that had become common place. The next sin was religious abuse…of forcing people to compromise their oaths. Specifically, it was coercing Nazarites to surrender their basis vows made to God. Finally, the last sin was commanding the prophets not to prophesy…effectively silencing the Voice of God by silencing His Messengers. Thus, God’s judgment was at the door for His wayward people, and nothing was going to remove His wrath.
