Wesley's Notes

9:10 All the sinners - The great, notorious sinners. The evil - Is far off, we shall die first, and be safe in the grave.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

10. All the sinners-answering to the chaff in the image in Am 9:9, which falls on the earth, in opposition "to the grain" that does not "fall."

overtake . us-"come on us from behind" [Maurer].

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

9:1-10 The prophet, in vision, saw the Lord standing upon the idolatrous altar at Bethel. Wherever sinners flee from God's justice, it will overtake them. Those whom God brings to heaven by his grace, shall never be cast down; but those who seek to climb thither by vain confidence in themselves, will be cast down and filled with shame. That which makes escape impossible and ruin sure, is, that God will set his eyes upon them for evil, not for good. Wretched must those be on whom the Lord looks for evil, and not for good. The Lord would scatter the Jews, and visit them with calamities, as the corn is shaken in a sieve; but he would save some from among them. The astonishing preservation of the Jews as a distinct people, seems here foretold. If professors make themselves like the world, God will level them with the world. The sinners who thus flatter themselves, shall find that their profession will not protect them.


Isaiah 33:14 Sinners in Zion are terrified; Trembling has seized the godless. "Who among us can live with the consuming fire? Who among us can live with continual burning?"
Amos 6:3 Do you put off the day of calamity, And would you bring near the seat of violence?
Zechariah 13:8 "It will come about in all the land," Declares the LORD, "That two parts in it will be cut off and perish; But the third will be left in it. (NASB ©1995)
