Discuss the injustices that existed during the time of prophet Amos.

During the time of Prophet Amos, the Northern Kingdom of Israel was experiencing significant social and economic injustices despite outward prosperity. The wealthy elite oppressed the poor through exploitation, debt bondage, and unfair legal practices, often selling the needy into slavery for small debts. There was widespread corruption in the courts, where justice was denied to the vulnerable, and religious hypocrisy was rampant, with people observing rituals while neglecting true righteousness and compassion for their neighbors.
