Both Israel and Judah had_their moral, religious anl onomic life influenced by the com mercial treaties and political alliances made with the surrounding nations. | It was to counteract the pernicious religious influence of these nations| and of the Canaanites, whose Influ- ence survived long after the Hebrews succeeded them in the control of P: estine, that the prophets had to wage a warfare against idolatry and im- morality.

Elijah’s name, Jehovah is my God,” is the key to his character and conduct. The man who dared to abruptly enter the court of Ahab, whose conquests indicated | that he apt to revive the El“’fltri ness of David and the glory of Solo- mon, was moved without doubt by the assurance that he was chosen to be the speaker of Jehovah. Amos gives us two_different allusions to his call d called the herdsman of Tekoa by Ldivinely given insight to leave his valuable sheep and sycamore trees nd carry his message to Bethel, the sanctuary of Israel, at an hour when the haughty rulers of the northern kingdom had forgotten Jehovah in | the intoxication of success that had | come to Jeroboam II.
