Abstract: The writing of Amos 4:6-11 is an additional story of God's actions in the past through the writing of the judgment given to Israel. Each form of judgment begins with an appeal to what God does, with the conclusion that every judgment comes from His word. In the literary layer, Amos 4:6-11 reaffirms the series of punishments in the form of climactic literature. There are several opinions on this climactic literary interweaving by observing the use of divine words that affirm the context of past judgment. Similarly, the use of the word repetitious as part of the climactic literature that Israel does not want to turn to God. Through the affirmation of this phrase, there is an understanding as if God places Himself responsible for the past condemnation that Israel experienced. The research method in this paper is an analysis of poetry and climactic literature to raise awareness and meaning of poetry literature as a theological reflection. The purpose of this writing is to explore a form of artistic expression that uses poetry to highlight issues of human action before God. The results of this research are to explain the form of Allah's punishment as part of education for the ummah. Through comparison with the previous two publications, there are several aspects of novelty in the article. The first is the scope of the text being studied, which focuses on verses 6-11 only. The second is the entity of the nation being studied, namely the nation of Israel. The third is the research method used, namely, with a hermeneutic approach to climactic poetry literature.
Abstrak: Tulisan Amos 4:6-11 merupakan tambahan cerita mengenai tindakan Allah pada masa lalu melalui penulisan penghukuman yang diberikan kepada Israel. Setiap bentuk penghukuman dimulai dengan seruan apa yang dilakukan Allah dengan kesimpulan bahwa setiap penghukuman berasal dari perkataan-Nya. Pada bagian lapisan sastra Amos 4:6-11 menegaskan kembali seri penghukuman berupa sastra yang bersifat klimatik. Terdapat beberapa pendapat mengenai jalinan sastra klimatik ini dengan memerhatikan penggunaan kata-kata ilahi yang menegaskan konteks penghukuman masa lalu. Demikian pula penggunaan kata repetitif sebagai bagian dari sastra klimatik bahwa Israel tidak mau berbalik kepada Allah. Melalui penegasan frasa tersebut terdapat pemahaman seolah-olah Allah menempatkan diri-Nya yang bertanggung jawab untuk penghukuman masa lalu yang dialami Israel. Metode penelitian dalam tulisan ini adalah analisis sastra klimatik puisi untuk rmembangkitkan kesadaran dan pemaknaan sastra puisi sebagai refleksi teologi. Tujuan penulisan ini untuk menggali bentuk ekspresi artistik yang menggunakan puisi untuk menyoroti isu-isu tindakan manusia di hadapan Allah. Hasil penelitian ini untuk menjelaskan bentuk penghukuman Allah sebagai bagian didikan bagi umat. Melalui pembandingan dengan dua publikasi sebelumnya, maka ada beberapa aspek kebaruan dalam artikel. Pertama ialah cakupan teks yang diteliti, yakni berfokus pada ayat 6-11 saja. Kedua ialah entitas bangsa yang diteliti, yakni bangsa Israel. Ketiga ialah metode penelitian yang dipakai, yakni dengan pendekatan hermeneutik sastra puisi klimatik
