Joel 2:23 - Forerunner Commentary

Joel 2:23

21 Fear not, O land;
Be glad and rejoice,
For the Lord has done¹ marvelous things!

22 Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field;
For ^athe open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.

23 Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And ^arejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the¹ former rain faithfully,
And He ^bwill cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.

24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat,
And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.

25 “So I will restore to you the years ^athat the swarming locust has eaten,
The crawling locust,
The consuming locust,
And the chewing locust,
My great army which I sent among you.

26 You shall ^aeat in plenty and be satisfied,
And praise the name of the Lord your God,
Who has dealt wondrously with you;
And My people shall never be put to ^bshame.

27 Then you shall know that I am ^ain the midst of Israel:
^bI am the Lord your God
And there is no other.
My people shall never be put to shame.
