Excerpt from The Book of Amos: With Notes
Common, again, to both was the religious practice of the day. We hear of pilgrimages to famous shrines, and of solemn assemblies 1n the local sanctuaries, where music and singing accompanied the acts of worship. The sacrifices included most of those mentioned in the later law books, the burnt offering, the meal offering, the free-will offering, the thanksgiving offering (v. 21 - 23, iv. The new moons and sabbaths were observed by the cessation of labour (viii. Amos knows of a law prohibiting the use of leaven with sacrifices (iv. 5, cf. Ex. Xxiii.

Excerpt from The Book of Amos: With Notes
The primary object of these Commentaries is to be exegetical, to interpret the meaning of each book of the Bible in the light of modern knowledge to English readers. The Editors will not deal, except subordinately, with questions of textual criticism or philology; but taking the English text in the Revised Version as their basis, they will aim at combining a hearty acceptance of critical principles with loyalty to the Catholic Faith.
The series will be less elementary than the Cambridge Bible for Schools, less critical than the International Critical Commentary, less didactic than the Expositor's Bible; and it is hoped that it may be of use both to theological students and to the clergy, as well as to the growing number of educated laymen and laywomen who wish to read the Bible intelligently and reverently.
Each commentary will therefore have
(i) An Introduction stating the bearing of modem criticism and research upon the historical character of the book, and drawing out the contribution which the book, as a whole, makes to the body of religious truth.
(ii) A careful paraphrase of the text with notes on the more difficult passages and, if need be, excursuses on any points of special importance either for doctrine, or ecclesiastical organization, or spiritual life.
