"""I read the commentary as a parish pastor who wanted to better teach God's people the fullness of God's Word. This commentary is a great resource for the pastor. It is rich with information concerning the culture and habits of the day which helps with the interpretation of God's Word. Geography, economics, world events, and other information is presented to help understand Amos. This information not only helps the pastor understand Amos, but enriches his understanding of much of the prophetic writings. Of course, this then builds the appreciation of the rest of the Holy Scriptures. Brother pastors and other brothers and sisters in Christ, this commentary on Amos is a valuable asset to You in the understanding of God's Word for the strengthening of your faith."" -Rev. Kirk Peters of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, Buffalo, Wyoming from Lutheran Hymnody and Pulpit Quarterly Book Review ""This is an excellent work, though it is long (more than 600 pages) and heavily depends on three commentaries (Paul, Niehaus, and Andersen and Freedman). Its strength is the detailed explanation of Hebrew phrases, so it will be very useful for pastors who want to maintain their use of the Hebrew Language."" -Gary W Smith, Bethel Seminary from Bulletin for Biblical Research 2012"
