Amos1:7
Verſe 7. But I will ſend a fire] i. e. an enemy, ſaith Druſius, which, as a fire, ſhall conſume all. This was fulfilled by Ʋzziah 2 Chron. 26.6. whence it was afterward called Gaza which is deſart, Act. 8.26.
which ſhall devour the palaces thereof] built likely in the blood of the poor afflicted, and having ſinne at the bottome, which blew up all at length, as the voyce from heaven ſaid to Phocas, Cedren: hiſt. pag. 543. who likewiſe laid his foundation in blood. See the Note on verſe 4.
