During the time of the prophet Amos, the ruler of Judah was King Uzziah, also known as Azariah. He reigned approximately from 792 to 740 BCE and is noted for his efforts to strengthen the kingdom and expand its territory. Amos, however, primarily prophesied in the northern kingdom of Israel during the reign of King Jeroboam II.

What advantages would Amos have being sent to the Northern Kingdom when he was from Judah?

The Book of Amos is signed as by a prophet Amos in the reign of the Judahite king Uzziah, shortly before the destruction of Israel, and says that he was born in the southern country of Judah and moved to the northern kingdom of Israel. However, Amos 5:2, "The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up," demonstrates awareness of the later events of 722 BCE, and not just a prophecy - the destruction has occurred.At face value, Amos went to Israel to exhort the people to follow the Lord, but does not suggest that this will save the Israelites from the fate to come. At least in the time of the divided kingdoms, the Bible has all the prophets coming from the southern kingdom, Judah, so Amos is no exception.If we accept a later date for the Book of Amos, as verse 5:2 suggests, and some scholars believe, then the exhortation is not really to the Israelites, who had ceased to exist as a nation and were scattered abroad, but to the Judahites. It was really a warning to the people of Judah to avoid the fate of the Israelites, by having faith in God.

What are the miracles of prophet Amos?

Amos as the remainder of the minor prophets are about prophecies of end time more than miracles. One that comes to mind is Amos 8 where those who take advantage of others for profit and control are very clearly mentioned. - Amos 8 4 Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail.......5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?.......6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea, and sell the refuse of the wheat? 7 The Lord hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works. --- Perhaps the most famous prophecy of Amos is 8:11 which coincides with the signs of Jesus Christ given in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21. Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:

Who wrote the Book of Amos?

Most scholars believe that Amos gave his message in the autumn of 750 BCE or 749 BCE. It is generally understoodthat his preaching atBethel lasted only a single day at the least and a few days at the most. Leading up to this time, Assyrian armies battled against Damascus for a number of years, which greatly diminished Syria's threat to Israel. As a result of the fighting amongst its neighbors, Israel had the benefit of increasing its borders almost to those of the time of David and Solomon. There is no extant information about Amos other than that given in the Bible. Consequently it is not known if he actually existed or not. The Bible tells us he prophecied during the reigns of Uzziah of Judah and Jeroboam of Israel, which is approximately 767-753 BCE. This is the period when the book was set - it doesn't mean that it was written then. There is no way of establishing exactly when it was written.
