Charles Spurgeon Commentary Amos 6:2

"Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines: are they better than these kingdoms? or is their border greater than your border?" — Amos 6:2 (ASV)

The Lord points to other cities that had been destroyed—to Calneh, Hamath, and Gath, which He had struck down because of the sin of the people who had lived there; and He says, "You who dwell in Jerusalem, and you who live in Samaria, do not imagine that you will escape the consequences of your sin. I was able to reach the inhabitants of these proud cities, despite their strong fortifications and their powerful armies; and I can reach you also."

So, when we look back on the judgments of God upon guilty people, we may conclude that no sinner has any right to think that he will escape.

The proudest and mightiest have been brought down by God, and so too will those who dare to resist the Most High. Continue to be humble, even to the end of the world.
