This text, as well as Deuteronomy 26:2-15 to which it is closely related, is used as the basis for a reconstruction of a royal rite at Bethel during the time of the monarchy. Amos 7:10-8:14 and Hosea 9:1-9 are read against this background. The said prophecies state exactly the opposite of what was expressed and intended by the royal rite. This accounts for the vehement reaction against Amos and Hosea from the side of the priests.16 pagesPDFAfrikaansFaculty of Theology, University of PretoriaSamaritan LiturgyBethelSamaritansAutumn festivals -- SamariaLiturgicsBible -- O.T. -- Deuteronomy 26:2-15Article
