Amos 7:7-8

Jesus is the final plumb line. He is the Savior of the world where heaven touched earth at the cross. Believe in Him and be saved!

Amos 7:7-8

7 Thus He showed me: Behold, the Lord stood on a wall made with a plumb line, with a plumb line in His hand. 8 And the Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you see?”

And I said, “A plumb line.”

Then the Lord said:

“Behold, I am setting a plumb line

In the midst of My people Israel;

I will not pass by them anymore.

A plumb line is a string with a weight tied to one end, used to establish a vertical line so that a wall can be built straight. God asked Amos what he saw, then explained the vision’s meaning. Unlike the first two visions, God did not give Amos opportunity to intercede, nor did He relent. These judgments would be executed. The plumb line of God’s revelation in the law had been set in the midst of … Israel for many generations. Now God would stretch a plumb line to demonstrate how “crooked” the people’s observance of His commands had been. The high places refer to temples, groves, and other shrines dedicated mostly to pagan deities. NKJ Bible.

The third vision involves a metaphor for construction or demolition. Faithlife Bible.
