Cross-References
“No! You will not die,” the serpent said to the woman.
The woman saw that the tree was good for food and delightful to look at, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom. So she took some of its fruit and ate it; she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.
So the Lord God called out to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”
And he said, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.”
The man replied, “The woman you gave to be with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate.”
“What is this you have done?” Joseph said to them. “Didn’t you know that a man like me could uncover the truth by divination?”
and Samuel asked, “What have you done?”
Joab went to the king and said, “What have you done? Look here, Abner came to you. Why did you dismiss him? Now he’s getting away.
“I’m not a Jew, am I?” Pilate replied. “Your own nation and the chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?”
And Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and transgressed.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob,.... The prophets and priests, whose business it was to speak to the people from the Lord, and declare his will to them, and to admonish them of their sin and danger, are here called upon to hearken to what the Lord was about to say, and to testify and publish it to the people of Israel, the posterity of Jacob, though sadly degenerated:
saith the Lord God, the God of hosts; the eternal Jehovah, the Being of beings, the God of the whole earth, the God of the armies above and below; and, being so great, ought to be heard with the greatest attention and reverence in what follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Hear ye and testify ye in - (Rather unto or against ) the house of Israel; first âhearâ yourselves, then âtestify,â that is, solemnly âprotest,â in the Name of God; and âbear witness untoâ and âagainstâ them, so that the solemn words may sink into them. It is of little avail to âtestfy,â unless we first âhear;â nor can man âbear witnessâ to what he doth not know; nor will words make an âimpression,â that is, leave a trace of themselves, be stamped in or on peopleâs souls, unless the soul which utters them have first hearkened unto them.
Saith the Lord God of hosts - âSo thundereth, as it were, the authority of the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of the shepherd. Foretelling and protesting the destruction of the altar of Bethel, he sets his God against the god whom Israel had chosen as theirs and worshiped there, âthe Lord God of hosts,â against âthe similitude of a calf that eateth hayâ Psalms 106:20. Not I, a shepherd, but so speaketh my God against your god.â
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Amos 3:13. Hear ye — This is an address to the prophet.
