TSNTyndale Study Notes:

9:1 I saw . . . the Lord (see 7:1): God ceased to reveal how or why he would punish Israel; he was now poised to act.
• beside the altar: Judgment must begin with the center of worship (cp. 1 Pet 4:17). This altar probably refers to the Bethel shrine, although it could refer to the Temple in Jerusalem.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

General Information:

Yahweh shows Amos another vision.

(Occurrence 0) Strike the tops … Break them

(Some words not found in UHB: saw DOM my=master/master standing on/upon the,altar and=he/it_said strike the,capitals and,shake the,thresholds and,shatter,them in/on/at/with,heads all,them and,rest,them in/on/at/with,sword kill not get_away to/for=them fugitive and=not escape to/for=them fugitives )

It is uncertain to whom Yahweh is speaking these commands.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

(Occurrence 0) Strike the tops of the pillars so that the foundations will shake

(Some words not found in UHB: saw DOM my=master/master standing on/upon the,altar and=he/it_said strike the,capitals and,shake the,thresholds and,shatter,them in/on/at/with,heads all,them and,rest,them in/on/at/with,sword kill not get_away to/for=them fugitive and=not escape to/for=them fugitives )

It is implied that Yahweh is speaking about the pillars and foundations of a temple.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

(Occurrence 0) so that the foundations will shake

(Some words not found in UHB: saw DOM my=master/master standing on/upon the,altar and=he/it_said strike the,capitals and,shake the,thresholds and,shatter,them in/on/at/with,heads all,them and,rest,them in/on/at/with,sword kill not get_away to/for=them fugitive and=not escape to/for=them fugitives )

Here “foundations” represents the whole temple. Alternate translation: “so that the whole temple will shake”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

(Occurrence 0) Break them in pieces on all of their heads

(Some words not found in UHB: saw DOM my=master/master standing on/upon the,altar and=he/it_said strike the,capitals and,shake the,thresholds and,shatter,them in/on/at/with,heads all,them and,rest,them in/on/at/with,sword kill not get_away to/for=them fugitive and=not escape to/for=them fugitives )

Here “heads” represents the whole person. Alternate translation: “Break the pillars so that the temple falls on all of the people and kills them”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) I will kill the last of them with the sword

(Some words not found in UHB: saw DOM my=master/master standing on/upon the,altar and=he/it_said strike the,capitals and,shake the,thresholds and,shatter,them in/on/at/with,heads all,them and,rest,them in/on/at/with,sword kill not get_away to/for=them fugitive and=not escape to/for=them fugitives )

Here “sword” represents an army attacking with their weapons. Alternate translation: “I will send an enemy army to kill the rest of them”
