The name that is transliterated as “Amos” in English means “burden,” “one with a burden.” (Source: Cornwall / Smith 1997 )
In Libras (Brazilian Sign Language) it is translated with a sign that combines a suggestion for the dispensation of grace (a possible extended meaning of the name) and Jesus’ ancestor (pointing to the chest). (Source: Missão Kophós )
