G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Joel 2:1-27

Having thus dealt with the actual visitation and its terrible devastation, and having called the people into the place of humiliation, the prophet rose to a higher level, and interpreted the visitation as indicating a deeper and more terrible judgment threatening them. In doing this, he made use of the figure of the blowing of a trumpet. The first blast sounded a note of alarm as it announced the approach of the Day of Jehovah. With the figure of the locusts still in mind, the prophet... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Joel 2:26

GOD’S PEOPLE UNASHAMED‘And My people shall never he ashamed.’ Joel 2:26 There are three respects in which the promise of our text may be regarded as applying to those who answer to the description of the people of God. The believer has no cause to be ashamed: (1) When he searches into himself; (2) when he stands before the world; (3) when he stands before God. I. It is proved by daily experience that, when his own heart is laid open to a man, he shrinks from the scene of foulness and... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Joel 2:18-27

Having Accepted His People’s Repentance YHWH Promises To Deliver Them from The Plagues Of Locusts By Casting The Locusts Into The Seas On Both Sides Of The Land And That He Will Then Restore The Fruitfulness of Their Land (Joel 2:18-27 ). After the plagues came the deliverance, presumably because the people repented in accordance with Joel’s instructions (Joel 2:15-17). As a consequence of their repentance YHWH was ‘jealous’ for His land. He one again recognised it as His own and determined... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Joel 2:26

Ye shall eat; enjoy and live upon. In plenty; not with scarcity, as when water is measured to them, and bread is given by weight, Ezekiel 4:16. Be satisfied; the broad they eat shall refresh them, maintain their strength, not be as that Haggai 1:6. Praise the name; ascribe the glory to the mercy and faithfulness, to the power and wisdom, of your God; ye shall speak of it to his praise, stop the months of insulting heathens. The Lord your God: see Joel 2:13. Dealt wondrously; in one year giving... read more

DISCOURSE: 1181REMOVAL OF JUDGMENTS A GROUND OF PRAISEJoel 2:26. Ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.MOST encouraging is that appellation whereby David addresses the Most High God: “O Thou that hearest prayer!” It is this view of the Deity which alone keeps men from despair, and prevents this sinful world from becoming a counterpart of hell itself. God doth indeed hear the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Joel 2:1-32

Chapter 2Now he uses this as the springboard and he begins to speak now of a yet future day of devastation that is coming from armies that are to invade the land. And in the second chapter, as he describes this invading army, it is interesting to notice the description that he gives, because it is not much of a stretch of the imagination for us to see that he is describing modern warfare. The things that he described were things that were totally unknown and unheard of in his day, but yet they... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Joel 2:1-32

Joel 2:1 . Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, to convoke a solemn assembly for fasting and humiliation. Numbers 10:2-3. Joel 2:2 . A day of darkness, nigrum esse. The army of locusts obscured the light while flying through the air. More than twenty travellers are agreed on this subject. An army of locusts sometimes is a mile, and sometimes ten miles broad in the air. In a moral view, darkness implies the greatest of national disasters. Joel 2:3 . A fire devoureth before them. The... read more
