Amos 6:11 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

For, behold; consider this well: it seems to be the continued speech of him who took care of the dead, Amos 6:10. The Lord commandeth; God, provoked by our sins, hath sent out thy enemies; war, famine, and pestilence all come commissioned of God, and when the arrow is shot it will hit and kill. He will smite the great house with breaches; the palaces of great men, and their families, shall have great breaches made in them, by which they shall be ruined. And the little house with clefts; the cottages and lesser dwellings of poor men, with their families, shall by lesser strokes be ruined, their clefts shall be enough to do this. All shall be overthrown, and we must submit to it.
