Joel 2:10

Listen to Joel 2:10
10 La tierra tiembla mientras avanzan
y los cielos se estremecen.
El sol y la luna se oscurecen
y las estrellas dejan de brillar.

Joel 2:10 Meaning and Commentary

Joel 2:10

The earth shall quake before them
The inhabitants of it, because of the desolating judgments they bring with them, and those enemies that are signified by them: the heavens shall tremble;
being obscured by them: the sun and moon shall be dark;
the locusts sometimes come in such large numbers as to intercept the rays of the sun. Pliny F20 says they sometimes darken it; and though some thought they did not fly in the night, because of the cold; this he observes is owing to their ignorance, not considering that they pass over wide seas to distant countries; and this will account for it how the moon also may be darkened by them, and the stars, as follows: and the stars shall withdraw their shining;
though all this may be understood in a figurative sense of the great consternation that all sorts of persons should be in at such calamities coming upon the land, either by locusts, or by enemies; as the king, queen, nobles, and the common people of the land, signified by sun, moon, and stars, heaven and earth.

Joel 2:10 In-Context

8 No se empujan unos a otros;
cada uno se mueve en la posición exacta.
Atraviesan las líneas de defensa
sin perder la formación.
9 Irrumpen en la ciudad,
corren a lo largo de sus muros.
Se meten en todas las casas;
como ladrones trepan por las ventanas.
10 La tierra tiembla mientras avanzan
y los cielos se estremecen.
El sol y la luna se oscurecen
y las estrellas dejan de brillar.
11 El Señor
va a la cabeza de la columna;
con un grito los guía.
Este es su ejército poderoso
y ellos siguen sus órdenes.
El día del Señor
es algo imponente y pavoroso.
¿Quién lo podrá sobrevivir?
12 Un llamado al arrepentimiento
Por eso dice el Señor
:
«Vuélvanse a mí ahora, mientras haya tiempo;
entréguenme su corazón.
Acérquense con ayuno, llanto y luto.
