Correct Answer: D. end of the people of lsrael.

Explanation

In Amos' vision, the basket of summer fruit symbolized the impending judgment on the people of Israel. The Hebrew word for summer fruit in Amos 8:2 sounds similar to the Hebrew word for end. The vision conveyed the message that, just as the summer fruit marks the end of the harvest season, so too would the end come for the people of Israel due to their unrighteousness and social injustices.
