The Theology of the Land in Amos 7-9
This thesis aims to give an account of Amos' specific contribution to the Old
Testament's theology of land. It seeks to explore the theme of land as a key aspect of
the background to Amos' prophecy, and also of the book's overall theology of the
relationship between YHWH, Israel, and the world. In Amos, the language about land
is extensive, including terms and ideas such as Zion, Carmel, YHWH's bringing of
Israel into the land, references to various sanctuaries and places, harvest and famine,
other geographical indications, the relationship between the northern kingdom and
Judah, and references to the land of other nations.
The topic of land, however, has often been studied incidentally to other
themes, but less often as a theological topic in its own right. This thesis shows how
deeply embedded the topic of land is in Amos, and argues this by showing its relation
to other theological themes, including Zion, the covenant-election tradition, Israel,
creation, salvation, Sabbath, justice, and eschatology. That is, the study of land in
Amos has wider dimensions. The study is therefore set in a wide context in the Old
Testament, and raises questions about the relation of Amos to other important
theological traditions about land.
The study is essentially theological analysis. The argument will follow an
essentially synchronic reading. It will also employ textual, literary and historical
criticism, and the thesis analyzes carefully the text of Amos 7-9 for its literary
coherence and inner relationships. It attempts to demonstrate what theological
assumptions are made about the land in each section in Amos 7-9, and the relationship
of Amos' land-theology to other Old Testament theological traditions. While the
findings are set in the context of the book as a whole, the study focuses on this one
section of the book, chapters 7-9, in order to explore the topic in close detail
