Be strong and of good courage; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
AMOS: Amos is absolutely loaded with all kinds of references to the Pentateuch.  "The significance of them lies not in the actual number of references, but in the kind of references and the implications involved in the individual references."[14]  The knowledge of the Pentateuchal prohibition against keeping the pledge of a man's garment after sundown (Amos 2:8), mention of the Exodus from Egypt and the forty years of wandering (Amos 2:10), the reference to the vows of the Nazarites (Amos 2:11), the citation of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, and the reference to burnt-offerings, peace-offerings, meal-offerings, tithes, the horns of the altar, etc. - these are but a few of the scores of Pentateuchal echoes in Amos.
