14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision:
14 Multitudes, multitudes, in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
14 "Mass confusion, mob uproar - in Decision Valley! God's Judgment Day has arrived in Decision Valley.
14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
14 Thousands upon thousands are waiting in the valley of decision. There the day of the Lord will soon arrive.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Joel 3:14
Commentary on Joel 3:9-17
(Read Joel 3:9-17)
Here is a challenge to all the enemies of God's people. There is no escaping God's judgments; hardened sinners, in that day of wrath, shall be cut off from all comfort and joy. Most of the prophets foretell the same final victory of the church of God over all that oppose it. To the wicked it will be a terrible day, but to the righteous it will be a joyful day. What cause have those who possess an interest in Christ, to glory in their Strength and their Redeemer! The acceptable year of the Lord, a day of such great favour to some, will be a day of remarkable vengeance to others: let every one that is out of Christ awake, and flee from the wrath to come.
