Publisher's Synopsis
This volume provides a detailed analysis of the ancient Hebrew text of Amos 5:25-27, which refers to the worship of the gods Chiun and Remphan. The author argues against a prevailing view at the time that these gods were associated with Saturn and Jupiter, respectively, and instead proposes an alternative interpretation that links them to other deities mentioned in the Bible. This is an important work for scholars of biblical studies and ancient Near Eastern religions.
