Joel 3:15 Meaning and Commentary

Joel 3:15

The sun and moon shall be darkened
Both the politic and ecclesiastic state of antichrist shall be ruined and destroyed; it shall "fare" with Rome Papal as it did with Rome Pagan, at the time of its dissolution; see ( Revelation 6:12 Revelation 6:13 ) ( 16:8 ) ; and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
antichristian princes and nobles in the civil state, and the clergy of all ranks in the church state, shall lose their glory.

Joel 3:15 In-Context

13 Swing the sickle because the harvest is ripe. Come and trample [the grapes] because the winepress is full; the wine vats overflow because the wickedness of the nations is great.

14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the Day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.

15 The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will cease their shining.

16 The Lord will roar from Zion and raise His voice from Jerusalem; heaven and earth will shake. But the Lord will be a refuge for His people, a stronghold for the Israelites.

17 Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who dwells in Zion, My holy mountain. Jerusalem will be holy, and foreigners will never overrun it again.
