I actually never read the book of Joel before. In class on Tuesday we were asked to reread parts of the book aloud outside. This at first i thought was going to be very strange. But I did like sitting outside and reading. I felt it was a lil more power being able to read it peacefully and take time to pause. Although i do not like reading aloud i still enjoyed the peacefulness of reading outside by the lake.
Instead of writing a min of 300 words i think pictures can say 1000 words so i decided to take sections of the book of Joel and post pictures that may represent it...
THE DEVASTATION OF LOCUSTS
Joel talks about how locust destroy the nation devouring everything in their path, leaving nothing behind.
I think the description of locust swarming in can be compared to a time of war. ..
Starvation and Drought
Deliverance Promised
"For the pastures of the wilderness have turned green
For the tree has borne its fruit
The fig tree and the vine have yielded in full."

The starvation and drought picture is so sad. And is that locust picture real? I can't tell
ReplyDeleteWow! These illustrations is an amazing way to help the reader understand what the people had to actually endure! Great post Erica :) It is one thing to read it but when you can picture and see it it's almost as if it comes to life.
