Joel
Joel opens with an unprecedented devastation in the land described in terms of successive waves consuming what remains. The language centers on a locust-like plague that strips the land. See Joel 1:4.
4What the swarming locust has left, the great locust has eaten. What the great locust has left, the grasshopper has eaten. What the grasshopper has left, the caterpillar has eaten.
