12 Also Amaziah said unto Amos, O thou
aseer, go, flee thee away into the land of
Judaha, and there
eat bread, and prophesy there:
13 But prophesy not again any more at Beth-el:
for it is the king's achapel, and it is the
king's court.

12a flee thee away into the land of
Judah Amos was a prophet unto Israel and of the Northern Kingdom's
captivity and scattering. That Amos' words were preserved may will testify
that Amos did resort to Judah upon the time that Israel was destoryed and
scattered. But Amos testimony of warning was unto Ephraim/Israel and this is
who took offense and sought against him as attested here.
