righteousness – Bite-Sized Exegesis

The Fate of Those Who Despise Truth – Amos 5:10-13

In Amos 5:10-13, we see a corrupt society where the wealthy elite maintain their wealth and power by dishonestly fixing the system in their favor. A just judge is despised. God’s punishment is appropriate: whatever you use your wealth to build will be taken from you before you can enjoy it.

Bite-Sized Exegesis – Proverbs 10:25

“When the storm wind has passed a wicked man is no more; but a righteous man is an everlasting foundation.”
