SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:16
Ahora, pues, oye palabra del SEÑOR. Tú dices: No profetices contra Israel, ni hables contra la casa de Isaac:
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Amos 7:16
Verse 16. Now therefore hear thou the word of the Lord] While he was speaking in his own vindication, God seems to have inspired him with the awful prediction which he immediately delivers.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 16. Now therefore hear thou the word of the Lord , etc.] Which I have from him concerning thee, and which he has pronounced upon thee and thy family: thou sayest, prophesy not against Israel ; when God has bid me prophesy: and drop not [thy word] against the house of Isaac ; say nothing against it, though in ever so soft and gentle a manner: it designs the same thing as before, only in different words; and is a prohibition of the prophet to prophesy against the ten tribes that descended from Isaac, in the line of Jacob. So the Targum paraphrases it, “thou shalt not teach against the house of Isaac;” or deliver out any prophecy or doctrine that is against them, or threatens them with any calamity. Jarchi says the phrase is expressive of prophecy; (see Deuteronomy 32:2 Ezekiel 21:2).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-17 - It is no new thing for the accusers of the brethren, to misrepresen them as enemies to the king and kingdom, as traitors to their prince and troublers of the land, when they are the best friends to both Those who make gain their godliness, and are governed by the hopes of wealth and preferment, are ready to think these the most powerfu motives with others also. But those who have a warrant from God, lik Amos, ought not to fear the face of man. If God, that sent him, had no strengthened him, he could not thus have set his face as a flint. The Lord often chooses the weak and foolish things of the world to confoun the wise and mighty. But no fervent prayers, or self-denying labours can bring proud sinners to bear faithful reproofs and warnings. And all who oppose or despise the Divine word, must expect fatal effects to their souls, unless they repent __________________________________________________________________
