Joel / Question
Question source
Joel
Joel portrays widespread devastation: fire consuming pastures and flames burning trees, with watercourses dried up. The imagery emphasizes how total the drought-like ruin is. See Joel 1:19–20.
19Yahweh, I cry to you, For the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, And the flame has burned all the trees of the field.
20Yes, the animals of the field pant to you, For the water brooks have dried up, And the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
