The fourth section of Amos.

Amos was borne in Thecue, descended of the tribe of Za∣bulon, he was father to Esay the Prophet: so saith Epiphan. de prophet. vit & inter. but saint Austen and saint Hierome think otherwise, as I haue shewed. Amos was of Thecue six miles South from holy Bethlehem, where our Sauiour Christ was borne. Hier. in comment. Amos.

S. Basill saith, that Amos was a shepheard, but God in∣structed him with his holy spirite,* 1.1 and so aduaunced him to the dignitie of a prophet. Basilius, Epist. 55.

Amos prophesied in the daies of Ozias, when Esaias began his prophesie. Hier. in Esaiam. lib. 3 cap. 7. Aug. de ciuit. lib. 18 cap. 27 He prophesied also in the time of Ieroboam, the sonne of Ioas king of Israel. Hier. in 1. cap. Amos.
