Joel (prophet)
Joel (; he, יוֹאֵל – ''Yōʾēl''; gr, Ἰωήλ – ''Iōḗl''; syr, ܝܘܐܝܠ – ''Yu'il'') was a prophet of ancient Israel, the second of the twelve minor prophets and according to the book itself the author of the Book of Joel. He is mentioned by name only once in the Hebrew Bible, in the introduction to that book, as the son of Pethuel ( Joel 1:1). The name Joel combines the covenant name of God, YHWH (or Yahweh), and El (god), and has been translated as "YHWH is God" or "one to whom YHWH is God," that is, a worshiper of YHWH. Life Some commentators suggest that Joel lived in the 9th century BCE, whereas others assign him to the 5th or 4th century BCE.Anderson, B.W.

Harlow, UK: Longman. p.524 The dating of his book is similarly debated; there are no mentions of kings that might help locate it in time. The book's mention of Greeks has not given scholars any help in dating the text since the Greek ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
