Description:Said to contain the words of the earliest of the biblical prophets (8th century BCE), the "Book of Amos" is reinterpreted by James Linville in light of new and sometimes controversial historical approaches to the Bible.

Its representations of divine-human communication are investigated in the context of the ancient writers' own role as transmitters and shapers of religious traditions.
