Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root אָמַץ (H553), meaning "to be strong" or "to be courageous."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry is G301, Ἀμώς (Amos), which is a transliteration of the Hebrew name. However, it is important to note that in the Greek context, Amos typically refers to the prophet Amos, a different biblical figure. The connection lies in the transliteration of the name rather than a direct correlation in identity or role. Usage: The name Amots appears in the Hebrew Bible as the father of the prophet Isaiah. It is used specifically in the context of identifying Isaiah's lineage. Context: Amots is a biblical figure known primarily as the father of the prophet Isaiah, one of the major prophets in the Old Testament. His name is mentioned in several passages, including Isaiah 1:1, 2 Kings 19:2, 2 Kings 20:1, and 2 Chronicles 26:22. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) references Amots in these contexts to establish the prophetic authority and lineage of Isaiah. Amots himself is not described in detail, and his life and deeds are not recorded in the biblical narrative. However, his mention serves to authenticate Isaiah's prophetic ministry by linking him to a known family line. The name Amots, meaning "strong" or "courageous," may reflect the character or reputation of the family, though specific details about Amots's life remain unknown.
