Amos 8:3
_ _ songs of ... temple — (Amos 5:23). The joyous hymns in the temple of Judah (or rather, in the Beth-el “royal temple,” Amos 7:13; for the allusion is to Israel, not Judah, throughout this chapter) shall be changed into “howlings.” Grotius translates, “palace”; compare Amos 6:5, as to the songs there. But Amos 5:23, and Amos 7:13, favor English Version.
_ _ they shall cast them forth with silence — not as the Margin, “be silent.” It is an adverb, “silently.” There shall be such great slaughter as even to prevent the bodies being buried [Calvin]. There shall be none of the usual professional mourners (Amos 5:16), but the bodies will be cast out in silence. Perhaps also is meant that terror, both of God (compare Amos 6:10) and of the foe, shall close their lips. |
Amos 8:3
With silence — So great will be the cruelty of the enemy, that they dare not bury them, or if they do, it must be undiscerned. |
Amos 8:3
And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the Lord GOD: [there shall be] many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast [them] forth with (b) silence.
(b) There will be none left to mourn for them. |
