Amós 4:11

Listen to Amós 4:11
11 Subverti alguns dentre vós, como Deus subverteu a Sodoma e Gomorra, e ficastes sendo como um tição arrebatado do incêndio; contudo não vos convertestes a mim, diz o Senhor.

Amós 4:11 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 4:11

I have overthrown [some] of you, as God overthrew Sodom and
Gomorrah
Either their houses were burnt, or their bodies consumed by fire from heaven, with lightning; not whole cities, but the habitations of some particular persons, or they themselves: and ye were as a firebrand plucked out of the burning;
some escaped such an awful calamity, their houses were not consumed, while others were; and their persons were safe, while others, just by them, were struck dead at once: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord;
neither the judgments of God on themselves and others had any effect upon them to humble and reclaim them: such dispensations, without the grace of God is exerted, rather harden than soften; and, instead of bringing men to repentance, cause them to blaspheme; see ( Revelation 16:8-11 ) ; nor will the mercy and goodness of God, which should lead persons to repentance, attain that end, unless accompanied with the Spirit and grace of God; who, notwithstanding such mercies and deliverances, will remain senseless, stupid obdurate, and impenitent; see ( Revelation 9:20 Revelation 9:21 ) .

Amós 4:11 In-Context

9 Feri-vos com crestamento e ferrugem; a multidão das vossas hortas, e das vossas vinhas, e das vossas figueiras, e das vossas oliveiras, foi devorada pela locusta; contudo não vos convertestes a mim, diz o Senhor.
10 Enviei a peste contra vós, � maneira de Egito; os vossos mancebos matei � espada, e os vossos cavalos deixei levar presos, e o fedor do vosso arraial fiz subir aos vossos narizes; contudo não vos convertestes a mim, diz o Senhor.
11 Subverti alguns dentre vós, como Deus subverteu a Sodoma e Gomorra, e ficastes sendo como um tição arrebatado do incêndio; contudo não vos convertestes a mim, diz o Senhor.
12 Portanto assim te farei, ó Israel, e porque isso te farei, prepara-te, ó Israel, para te encontrares com o teu Deus.
13 Porque é ele o que forma os montes, e cria o vento, e declara ao homem qual seja o seu pensamento, o que faz da manhã trevas, e anda sobre os lugares altos da terra; o Senhor, o Deus dos exércitos é o seu nome.
