The Prophecies of Amos - Amos 1:1-15, 2:1-16, 3:1-15, 4:1-13

"Hear this word, you cows of Bashan on Mount Samaria,

     you women who oppress the poor and crush the needy

     and say to your husbands, 'Bring us some drinks!'"

Amos 4:1

Whoa, wait a minute there, did I hear a prophet of the God most high call women...cows?  No, that's wrong.  He didn't call all women cows.  Just these women.  

That's funny.  Lord knows.
