Geneva Bible Notes (1560)Joel 1

2 a Signifying, the Princes, the Priests, and the gouerners.

2 b He calleth the Jewes to the consideration of Gods judgements, who had now plagued the frutes of the grounde of the space of foure yere, which was for their sinnes, & to call them to repentance.

6 d This was another plague wherewith God had punished them when he stirred vp the Assyrians against them.

8 e Mourne grieuously as a woman, which hathe lost her housband, to whome she hathe bene maried in her youth.

13 h He sheweth that the only meanes to auoide Gods wrath, & to haue all things restored is vnfained repentance.
