Joel 3:15

15 The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will no longer shine.

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, for the harvest is ripe. Come, trample the grapes, for the winepress is full; the wine vats overflow because their wickedness 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 no longer shine.

16 The LORD will roar from Zion and raise His voice from Jerusalem; heaven and earth will tremble. But the LORD will be a refuge for His people, a stronghold for the people of Israel.

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