📚 Contexto Histórico
Amos was a prophet from Judah in the 8th century BC, sent by God to confront the social injustices and idolatry in the northern kingdom of Israel. In this verse, Amaziah, a priest at Bethel, orders Amos to stop prophesying because Bethel was a major religious site that had become a royal sanctuary under the king of Israel, symbolizing the entanglement of religion with political power. This confrontation highlights the resistance faced by true prophets when they challenged the corruption of established authorities.
