Amos 6:11
_ _ commandeth, and he will smite — His word of command, when once given, cannot but be fulfilled (Isaiah 55:11). His mere word is enough to smite with destruction.
_ _ great house ... little house — He will spare none, great or small (Amos 3:15). Jerome interprets “the great house” as Israel, and “the small house” as Judah: the former being reduced to branches or ruins, literally, “small drops”; the latter, though injured with “clefts” or rents, which threaten its fall, yet still permitted to stand. |
