208. Internal Meaning of Amos, Chapter 8

1 A new thing of the church comes into existence. (11)

2 The old church comes to an end, (3)

4-6 when there is nothing but adulteration of good and truth. (3)

7-10 Therefore they will perish on the day of judgment. (15)

11-14 Then there will no longer be any good or truth. (3, 15)
