amos 3:13 Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts,

amos 3:13 "Hear and testify against the house of Jacob," Declares the Lord God, the God of hosts.

13. testify in the house, &c.--that is, against the house of Jacob. God calls on the same persons as in Am 3:9, namely, the heathen Philistines and the Egyptians to witness with their own eyes Samaria's corruptions above described, so that none may be able to deny the justice of Samaria's punishment [MAURER].
God of hosts--having all the powers of heaven and earth at His command, and therefore One calculated to strike terror into the hearts of the guilty whom He threatens.

amos 3:13 "Hear and testify against the house of Jacob," Declares the Lord God, the God of hosts.
