Amos 5:24
“But let justice roll on like rivers, and righteousness like a perennial stream.”
Amos was a prophet from Judah, speaking to the northern kingdom of Israel in the 8th century BCE. He delivered sharp messages of judgment against their social injustice and religious hypocrisy, often contrasting their outward worship with their inward neglect of the poor and oppressed.
What does it mean for justice to 'roll on like rivers' in our daily interactions and larger society?
