"The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 34: Joel" is a religious text translated from the Latin Vulgate, part of a larger compilation known as the Holy Bible, which was first published by the English College at Douay in the early 17th century. This particular book is categorized as a prophetic text and is believed to have been written during the period of the Hebrew Bible, likely in the 8th century BC. The primary topic of the book is the prophecy delivered by Joel, focusing on calls for repentance and foretelling both judgment and restoration for the people of Israel. In the "Prophecy of Joel," the prophet addresses the people of Judah, warning them of impending disasters due to their sins. He describes various calamities, including devastating locust invasions and drought, urging the community to turn to God in repentance through fasting and mourning. Amid these warnings, Joel also offers a message of hope, prophesying the outpouring of God’s Spirit and the arrival of restoration, signified by a Teacher of Justice, which Christians interpret as a reference to Jesus Christ. The text concludes with promises of divine intervention and a future where God will dwell among His people, cleaning their blood and bringing about a transformed and restored community.
