(hh) The Son of one Amos, whom we must not confound with the Prophet that bears this name.] The name of the Prophet is Amos, and that of the Father of Isaiah, is Amots. The first was a Shepherd, the second was of Royal Extraction. The first lived in the time of Uzziah King of Judah, the later is more ancient. St. Jerome in cap. 1. Isaiae, St. Austin in the 18th Book de Civitate Dei, ch. 27. St. Cyril in his Preface upon Amos, and others, have distinguished between these two. Clemens Alex∣andrinus, l. 1. Strom. the Author of the Life and Death of the Prophets, attributed to St. Epiphani∣us, and the Rabbins, have confounded them. St. Jerome tells us, that the Father of Isaiah was Father in Law to Manasses.
