The book of Joel is focused on several different occasions that are supposed to demonstrate the power and judgment of God. As I was reading, it feels like almost like a book of revelation type feel to it where you're supposed to go slow and try to figure out what exactly is he talking about here? Where maybe a contemporary of Joel, this would be easy to understand. That's interesting that you say that because there's this inscription from Dear Allah, which is in modern day Jordan in the eighth century. So possibly contemporaneous whenever Joel lived,. But it has some similarities to this describing days of darkness and celestial heavens being darkened.
