Daily Bible Reading - October 17th, 2021 | American Bible Society: Amos 3:1-15: The people of Israel were chosen to have a special relationship with the LORD, and they were chosen for a purpose – to be living examples of the LORD’s justice and goodness. But many in Israel refused to live according to this purpose. Today’s reading includes a continuation of the judgments directed against Israel. Samaria, Israel’s capital city, is targeted for punishment. The northern kingdom of Israel was also known as Samaria.
