Sample map in the Joel Bible Atlas

Invaders are coming like a swarm of locusts

Map of Bible empires Assyria Babylon Persia

Thatโ€™s Godโ€™s message, as told by a prophet named Joel.

A few nibbling grasshoppers arenโ€™t much of a problem. But in the Middle East, an angry swarm of hungry grasshoppers can explode up out of the desert sand and morph into a dark cloud big enough to blacken the sky and pose for photos shot from space.

The biggest swarms come from African and Arabian deserts where there arenโ€™t many critters with an appetite for grasshoppers. When conditions are perfect for grasshoppers to propagate, swarms can soar a mile high before dropping onto a green and brown patch of grain, fruit, and vegetables.

In modern times, swarms have been measured at 80 million locusts per square kilometer.

They can wipe out grain fields, vineyards, and olive orchardsโ€”along with most every other plant eaten by people, livestock, and wild animals. When wild animals begin starving, livestock and people begin looking tastier.

No wonder locusts show up on the kosher menu of the Hebrew ancestors of todayโ€™s Jewish people: โ€œโ€ฆlocusts, crickets, and grasshoppers. Eat any of them you likeโ€ (Leviticus 11:22).

Locusts, symbol for invaders

Joel used locusts to describe what invaders were going to do to the nation: Decimate it by stripping it bare to the bark. Thatโ€™s a metaphor.

What locusts did to a farmerโ€™s field, invaders would do to people, livestock, and cities in their path.

Joel warned that God was sending the invaders to punish the people for breaking their contract agreement to obey God in exchange for peace and prosperity.

โ€œIf you donโ€™t follow the law and you refuse to do what the LORD your God saysโ€ฆYouโ€™re going to have some painful experiences in your families, fields, flocks, and herdsโ€ (Deuteronomy 28:15-17).

โ€œYou can do thisโ€

Joelโ€™s message in a paragraph:

โ€œItโ€™s not too late, the LORD says. Come back to me With all your heart, With fasting,ย crying, and sorrow.

Donโ€™t tear your clothes in grief, though. Open your hearts instead. Go back to the LORD. Heโ€™s your God. Heโ€™s kind and full of mercy. โ€ฆHis love wonโ€™t quit. And the last thing he wants to do is punishโ€ (2:12-13).

They didnโ€™t listen

The most common educated guess among Bible scholars is that the people didnโ€™t do what Joel said. So, God did what he didnโ€™t want to do.

A nation, possibly Judah, got wiped off the map.

As the Bible tells Judahโ€™s story, invaders left no leaders and few survivors. Most who survived the battles were killed or deported to what is now Iraq.
