Amós 7:11 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 7:11

For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword
Which was not saying truth; for Amos said not that Jeroboam should die by the sword, but that God would raise up the sword against his house or family; nor did Jeroboam die by the sword, but his son Zachariah did: and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land;
this was true; Amos did say this, and he afterwards confirms it. This is the amount of the charge brought against the prophet, which has some truth and some falsehood mixed together; and by which method the priest hoped to gain his point, and get the prophet either banished or put to death.

Amós 7:11 In-Context

9 Los altares paganos de sus antepasados
quedarán en ruinas y los santuarios de Israel serán destruidos; acabaré de forma repentina con la dinastía del rey Jeroboam.
10 Amós y Amasías
Luego Amasías, el sacerdote de Betel, mandó un mensaje a Jeroboam, rey de Israel: «¡Amós está tramando una conspiración contra usted, aquí mismo en el umbral de su casa! Lo que él dice es intolerable.
11 Anda diciendo: “Pronto matarán a Jeroboam y el pueblo de Israel será enviado al destierro”».
12 Entonces Amasías envió órdenes a Amós:
—¡Vete de aquí, profeta! ¡Regresa a la tierra de Judá y gánate la vida profetizando allí!
13 No nos molestes con tus profecías aquí en Betel. ¡Este es el santuario del rey y el lugar nacional de culto!
