== Outline and brief summary ==
+
 
+
The relationship of verses 4:1-13 to the rest of chapters 3-5a is discussed at [[Amos 3-5| Amos 3-5a]]. Verses 4:1-13 can be outlined as follows:
+
 
+
:* '''Hear this word: Lord chastised Israel, but it did not return (4:1-13)'''
+
 
+
::* Lord will carry away those who glut on oppressing the poor (1-3)
+
::* Israel transgresses even in its religious ceremonies (4:4-5)
+
::* past chastisement has not caused Israel to return (4:6-12)
+
::* hymn: greatness and condescension of the Lord (13)
+
 
+
The substantive “why” reasons for the woes pronounced on Israel are social injustice and idolatry. The procedural "why now" reason for pronouncing these woes is that past chastisement has failed to cure those reasons.
