[393] But I have room at least for a bare statement of these remarkable facts:--
The titles for the God of Israel used in the Book of Amos are these: (1) _Thy God, O Israel_, ישראל אלהיך; (2) _Jehovah_, יהוה; (3) _Lord Jehovah_, יהוה אדני; (4) _Lord Jehovah of the Hosts_, יהוה אדני צבאות; (5) _Jehovah God of Hosts_ or _of the Hosts_, צבאות אלהי יהוה or הצבאות.
Now in the First Section, chaps. i., ii., it is interesting that we find none of the variations which are compounded with _Hosts_, צבאות. By itself יהוה (especially in the phrase _Thus saith Jehovah_, אמר כה יהוה) is general; and once only (i. 8) is _Lord Jehovah_ employed. The phrase, _oracle of Jehovah_, יהוה נְאֻם, is also rare; it occurs only twice (ii. 11, 16), and then only in the passage dealing with Israel, and not at all in the oracles against foreign nations.
In Sections II. and III. the simple יהוה is again most frequently used. But we find also _Lord Jehovah_, יהוה אדני (iii. 7, 8; iv. 2, 5; v. 3, with יהוה alone in the parallel ver. 4; vi. 8; vii. 1, 2, 4 _bis_, 5, 6; viii. 1, 3, 9, 11), used either indifferently with יהוה; or in verses where it seems more natural to emphasise the sovereignty of Jehovah than His simple Name (as, _e.g._, where _He swears_, iv. 2, vi. 8, yet when the same phrase occurs in viii. 7 יהוה alone is used); or in the solemn Visions of the Third Section (but not in the Narrative); and sometimes we find in the Visions _Lord_, אדני, alone without יהוה (vii. 7, 8; ix. 1). The titles containing צבאות or צבאות אלהי occur _nine_ times. Of these _five_ are in passages which we have seen other reasons to suppose are insertions: two of the Doxologies--iv. 13, צבאות אלהי יהוה and ix. 5, הצבאות יהוה אדני (in addition the LXX. read in ix. 6 צבאות יהוה), and in v. 14, 15 (see p. 168) and 27 (see p. 172), in all three צבאות אלהי יהוה. The _four_ genuine passages are iii. 13, where we find הצבאות אלהי יהוה preceded by אדני; v. 16, where we have צבאות אלהי יהוה followed by אדני; vi. 8, אלהי יהוה צבאות, and vi. 14, צבאות אלהי יהוה. Throughout the last two sections of the book נְאֻם is used with all these forms of the Divine title.
