Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
Pero yo fui quien destruyó a los amorreos delante de ustedes, gente que era alta como los cedros y fuerte como los robles. Los destruí completamente, desde el fruto de sus ramas hasta sus raíces bajo tierra.
Dios les recuerda a los israelitas que Él fue quien destruyó completamente a sus poderosos enemigos amorreos.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Amos, a shepherd and prophet from Judah, was delivering God's message to the Northern Kingdom of Israel around 750 BC, condemning their social injustices and idolatry while reminding them of God's past faithfulness. In this verse, God recalls how He destroyed the Amorites, a formidable Canaanite people described as tall as cedars and strong as oaks, during the Israelites' conquest of the Promised Land under Joshua's leadership in the 13th century BC. This historical event underscores God's sovereign power in fulfilling His promises to Abraham's descendants despite overwhelming opposition.
