1. Joel 3:2 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

What is the task of God’s people when God is going to judge?

Joel 3:2 (ESV)

2 I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. And I will enter into judgment with them there, on behalf of my people and my heritage Israel, because they have scattered them among the nations and have divided up my land,

Joel predicts that God will punish all nations in the valley of Jehoshaphat. From 2 Chronicles 20:1–37 we can see that at the final reckoning of the world, God’s people have nothing to do but to trust in God’s justice and power and to honour him jubilantly.
