Amós 2:5

Amo 2:5 But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.

Ver. 5. But I will send a fire upon Judah ] They shall also bear the punishment of their iniquities; yet, is it not said, as Amos 2:2 , that Judah shall "die with tumult?" &c. God will make a difference in his dealings with his own and others, his sons and his slaves; these shall totally and finally be consumed at once, Nahum 1:9 , not so the saints. The remnants of the Philistines shall perish, Amos 1:8 . But of Judah a remnant shall be still reserved, for royal use, Isaiah 11:11 ; Isaiah 11:16 .
