Explanation preview
Amos speaks for the LORD to Israel, the northern kingdom, and verse 10 is part of God's own account of what he has done for them. After naming their sins, God reminds them of the exodus: he brought them out of Egypt and guided them forty years in the wilderness so they could take the land of the Amorite, a name used here for the peoples already living in Canaan.
