Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city; see Amos 1:2; great in extent of ground, in strength of its fortifications, height and breadth of its walls, and multitude of its towers; great in the multitude of its numbers, and riches of its citizens, and every whit as great in the multitude of its sins: but let nothing retard or discourage thee, arise and go. Preach, publicly, plainly, boldly; cry, Amos 1:2. Unto it, i.e. against it, publish the near approaching ruin of it, preach to them the necessity of their repentance, and awaken them to it by the terrors of the Lord. The preaching that I bid thee; either which I did bid thee at first, as Amos 1:2, or what I shall suggest and communicate to thee when thou art come thither.
